Business of the House

The right hon. Gentleman may have an opportunity to raise that subject in Wednesday's debate on the revenue support grant for local government. Some 80% of bus services outside London are commercially run, and so do not depend on direct funding from councils. There has been no cut in the financial support that we provide for those services, and we have protected the statutory concessionary travel schemes.
