I am happy to accept the invite. As a parent, I am so keen that we do our best to maximise road safety at all costs and to encourage our children to walk, cycle or whatever it may be to get to places that are close to them, including school or the local youth club. I am very conscious of those issues, and, when the Department carries out the assessments, they are all factored in. If you want to write to the Department, I will be happy to accept the invitation.
