Insofar as my Department is concerned, my officials are currently finalising arrangements to put the Cycle to Work Scheme in place and it is envisaged that Departmental staff will be able to avail of this scheme later this month.

As the Cycle to Work is an optional scheme, the implementation of the scheme in the agencies under the remit of my Department is a matter for decision by those agencies.
