The UK government was the first national government to commit to broad based motorcycling strategy (February 2005). It is essentiall a transport strategy, which covers environmental, infrastructure and traffic management, motorcycle and rider equipment and behavioural factors.

Perhaps the most significant aspect is that the strategy includes a foreword from the Minister for Transport, in which he makes a commitment to mainstreaming motorcycling as a form of transport as government policy.

This is quite a different approach to most Australian governments, and many others around the world, who consider motorcycle too dangerous to be encouraged and focus policy on harm minimisation and control.
