"On 16th September, the National Cycling Strategy Board (NCSB) unveiled its ‘Bike for the Future’ proposals setting out organisational and funding arrangements to revitalise the National Cycling Strategy. It proposes a split between a ‘Board’, whose members would include senior officials from relevant Government departments (transport, health, planning, education, culture and sport) and the Chief Executive of its delivery arm, which will be known as ‘Cycling England’. Cycling England would itself have a regional presence similar to that of the English Regions Cycling Development Team (but without some of the other roles currently fulfilled by ERCDT), steered by senior figures with good knowledge and experience of cycling policy and development. The NCSB paper also proposes that Cycling England should have a budget of around £80-82m, of which c£70m would be for development projects such as individualised marketing and cycle training. This would be in addition to the £40m currently allocated for cycling through the Local Transport Plan process." CycleDigest, Issue 42, Winter 2004
