Norris chairs the National Cycling Strategy (NCS) Board which is responsible for promoting Strategy targets and cycling in general.
He was a member of the Conservative government that created the NCS which aims to quadruple the number of cycling trips from a 1996 base by 2012. The Labour government endorsed the Strategy in its Ten Year Transport Plan in 2000.

PS
Steven Norris wasn’t known as Nosher at all. It was something a tad more impolite and had much to do with his success at gaining the attentions of the opposite sex.
