If the Minister engaged with cycling activists nationally, they would not praise the work he is doing. Since Deputy Ross became the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, the funding for cycling infrastructure went from €19 million in 2015 to €8 million in 2018, according to the Minister's written reply which he sent to me. I see the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection, Deputy Regina Doherty, coming into the House. She might be interested to know that the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ross, promised in February of this year that the statutory instrument in respect of the minimum passing distance for cycling would come in immediately. Has he signed it? If he has not, when will he?
