I hear the point the Chairman is making and agree with it. I would also be disappointed if I thought the greenways were not progressing. For the reassurance of the Chairman and anyone following this, that funding is being reallocated within the same subhead, so while it is technically coming from the greenways, it remains within active travel. It may not be for a greenway per se but it is for another active travel measure, so it is within the same broad subhead and has just been moved from one column to another. It is not going off to fund a totally separate type of activity and is staying within the same broad policy area.
