Question

Whether, in the light of traffic congestion and bus operators' punctuality targets, they will suggest to the Traffic Commissioners that, where little is being done to promote buses in the hierarchy of traffic, an officer of the local authority concerned should be summoned before the Traffic Commissioner hearing a complaint about unpunctuality to explain the position. [HL 2888].
