Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with the Home Secretary on reports of (a) abuse and (b) harassment of women cyclists.

The Government aims to reduce violence against women and girls (VAWG) by half over the next decade, and agrees that any abuse or harassment of women cyclists is entirely inappropriate. Enforcement of any offences of this sort is a matter for the police. The Department for Transport is working very closely with the Home Office on their plans for a cross-government VAWG strategy, which is due to be published later this year.
