The latter not only refers to the decentralisation of physical infrastructure, but also the human resource needed to operate and maintain it. It would, therefore, also involve the management of human resources potentially across a number of ministries and the civil service. This could be assisted by short courses and vocational training to be provided for staff who are recruited to decentralised posts. The sector also has close linkages with health and healthier lifestyle choices, such as cycling and walking, which could deliver added benefits such as reduced obesity and incidence of non-communicable diseases in Tonga. Gender and social inclusion considerations The actions needed in this pathway include significant communication and awareness raising among the general public and other groups.

Question: Are there any health benefits?
Answer: The sector also has close linkages with health and healthier lifestyle choices, such as cycling and walking, which could deliver added benefits such as reduced obesity and incidence of non-communicable diseases in Tonga.

Promoting More Efficient Trucks. To achieve zero emissions in the transport sector in the Very High Ambition Scenario, this LEDS envisions a maximum lifetime of vehicles of 20 years. All vehicles after 2030 would need to be replaced with electric units after reaching 20 years. This will require considerable financial resources in terms of scrappage fees. Efficiency improvement measures have a (low) investment cost and this is recovered through energy savings i.e., measures are profitable and thus do not result in a total cost increase.
