The Cycling Stakeholder Forum has met four times: 13 September 2011, 19 March 2012, 26 June 2012, and 30 September 2013.

Minutes were taken for the first and fourth meetings. The second and third meetings were interactive workshops, so minutes were not appropriate.

The discussions from the second meeting are summarised in a document jointly agreed by the forum, and this can be found at the following link:

At the third meeting stakeholders heard about the new Cycle Safety Fund and reached agreement for a working group to organise an event in Leicester later in the year. Further details of the Cycle Safety Fund can be found at:

All agendas, minutes of the two other meetings, and membership will be placed in the libraries of the House.
