Proceeding contribution from Earl of Mar and Kellie (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 6 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Local Transport Bill [HL] Bill.


Local Transport Bill [HL] Bill

The point I pick up from the noble Lord, Lord Snape, is that many bus companies do this at present but they do not have to. I reflect on the fact that it is a lot more difficult to be allowed to drive a train than to drive a bus. There may be some pointers in that.
