Sure, and it is good to have that strategy prepared going into a new development plan, but where in the review of a previous development plan, to feed into the new development plan, will we analyse the transport patterns that emerged during the lifetime of the previous plan? I refer to feeding this information into the process to create a new development plan. It is great that we have put in a reference to sustainable transport plans. That is fantastic, although we did not quite get a good definition of them, but how will we be able to analyse if we have achieved any form of modal shift? I ask this considering the NTA is a consultee under section 51.
