Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scott of Needham Market (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 29 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL].


Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL]

My Lords, what advice does the Minister offer to local authorities with appeals in abeyance that have been on the books for some time? In many cases, in the large PTE areas, they amount to several millions of pounds. They are currently setting their budgets, which is very difficult if there is an open-ended appeal process. Will the Minister comment on their situation?
