On 25 February 2008, I commenced a public consultation exercise that will lead, during 2008, to the adoption by Government of a sustainable travel and transport action plan.

Pending completion of the consultation exercise, I am open to suggestions from all quarters in relation to the content of the proposed action plan. Accordingly, at this stage, it would be premature for me to set targets or make decisions, in the context of sustainable travel and transport, on issues such as modal shift.
