Supported by David Melding, Janet Finch-Saunders

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

1. Recognises the multiple health and wellbeing benefits of physical activity.

2. Notes that only 35 per cent of Welsh children are getting the recommended hour of physical activity that they need every day.

3. Recognises the potential of the Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 to raise levels of physical activity amongst all age groups.

4. Calls on the Welsh Government to fully engage communities in identifying the new routes that would link up local destinations and would be most likely to be well used.
