The question it is checked under

Do Edmonton's councillors bike to work, and do they get a vehicle allowance?

This claim is checked as part of that question. One brief covers every claim under it, and each claim still gets its own finding.

The investigation's outcomeGoing ahead

The remuneration rules can settle the vehicle-allowance claim, while the blanket claim that councillors never bike should be dropped unless their own disclosures provide a complete answer.
