CONCESSIONARY TRAVEL FOR DISABLED SCOTTISH VETERANS
That this House congratulates the Scottish government for its actions to extend free bus travel to Scotland's disabled veterans; notes that there will be cuts made to concessionary travel in England from 1 April 2009; further notes that the cost of bus travel has fallen in Scotland, in comparison to a one per cent. rise in the cost across the UK, and that more Scottish commuters are taking longer bus journeys; and believes that even more people will be encouraged to use buses and other forms of public transport in Scotland, therefore helping Scotland to meet its climate change targets and move towards a cleaner, greener future.
