The percentage of staff in my Department, who claimed expenses for use of private cars in 2006, was 32% and the percentage of staff who claimed expenses in respect of public transport, including bus, rail, and taxis, was 35%. There were no instances of staff members claiming expenses for the use of bicycles.
