Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL].
Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL]
I am not questioning the power particularly, which was raised by my noble friend Lord Hanningfield. It was just something that jumped up into my mind as we were going along, as the scheme is clearly being extended from local authorities out to those seeking to travel further afield. As I understand it, the noble Lord’s expectation is that local authorities will come together where necessary to negotiate outside and beyond their current boundaries. This is something we may need to bottom out.
