MHK to probe cycle to work scheme

An MHK wants to know more about the initiative encouraging Island people to cycle to and from work.

Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper will ask what the total cost in kind has been for the cycle to work scheme and how many people have made use of it.

In his question for Treasury Minister, Alf Cannan MHK, Mr Hooper also wants to find out what increase there's been in people using bicycles to get to and from work as a result of the project.

His question for written reply will be put forward at the next House of Keys sitting in Douglas on Tuesday which begins at 10am.
