Minister, it is good that we can benefit here in Wales from initiatives like Safe Routes in Communities and the active travel fund. I note with interest David Melding's contribution, and I'm thinking there could be many young people watching that who think, 'How can we get initiatives like that working in our own schools?' So, my question to you is: how are children and young people being encouraged to participate in the decision-making process that enables them to make the right choices? I know of several schools in my constituency that operate cycling proficiency training and walking buses as well, but how is pupil voice being prioritised within this area?
