The Government welcomes the report from the Cycle to Work Alliance. Officials from the Department for Transport, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs and Her Majesty’s Treasury met with the Cycle to Work Alliance to discuss the report’s findings and recommendations on 29 April. The recommendations, including the possible change to allow those on the minimum wage to access the scheme, will be considered carefully to establish whether and how the Cycle to Work scheme could be improved.
