We will reflect that feedback to the Commissioner. The overall active travel budget of €360 million and the huge investment we are seeing is to provide additional segregation for many vulnerable road users. Thirty-eight pedestrians have died this year. It is tracking to be the worst year in 15 years for pedestrians killed on our roads. That shows the serious impact on vulnerable road users in particular. Enforcement plays an important role in trying to protect people.
