Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to outline when she intends to publish the following research presently underway for (i) Active Travel and Modal Shift; (ii) Electrification of Transport; (iii) Greening of the Public Sector Fleet; and (iv) Alternative Fuels in the Transport Sector.

Answer:

My Department commissioned four research pieces Active Travel and Modal Shift, Development of Electric Vehicles in Northern Ireland, Alternative Fuels for Vehicles and Greening the Fleet to inform the Development of future policy.

The last of the reports has only recently been received and is currently being reviewed by my Department. Once this work has been completed and I am in receipt of these reports I shall consider how the research can best be utilised for the purposes of future policy development.
