View answerMy Department and the Offices and Agencies that come under the aegis of my Department are taking part in the cycle to work scheme with the exception of Shannon Development and the 35 County and City Enterprise Boards which have indicated they have no immediate plans to participate in the scheme. It is not envisaged that the decentralisation process will have any impact on participation in the cycle to work scheme.
