Proceeding contribution from Celia Barlow (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [Lords].


Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [Lords]

The Secretary of State will be delighted to learn that there has been great interest in this scheme in my city of Brighton and Hove, but there is also confusion on the point that he mentioned. In Brighton and Hove, free medical cards are given out for coach travel outside the city. Will they now be available for the over-60s? Will there be a national framework for a coach travel scheme?
