Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Adam Dance (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 22 January 2026, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 8 members in total.
Linda Snelling and the Somerset Bus Partnership
That this House commends the hard work and dedication of Linda Snelling of the Somerset Bus Partnership in supporting bus users in Somerset; recognises that this dedication comes at a time when bus mileage in the county has, since 2010, fallen more than 70% according to Government figures; further recognises the disproportionate impact these cuts have on rural communities such as those in Somerset, and on elderly populations who rely more on public transport; welcomes the £24.7 million boost for services in Somerset up to 2030 from the Department for Transport; and urges the Government to continue providing investment for rural bus provision.
