Proceeding contribution from Nicholas Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 March 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Pensioner Travel (Tyne and Wear).


Pensioner Travel (Tyne and Wear)

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for explaining the background to us. Does he accept that for the next financial year Nexus faces a shortfall in the funding arrangements of about £5.4 million? If so, can he give the House an assurance that meaningful discussions are going on in Government to try to resolve that problem? If he thinks the discussions are stuck and that we are not getting any further forward, will he say so, so that we can have the meeting with the Prime Minister that we were promised?
