Proceeding contribution from Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 16 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Transport Bill [HL].


Local Transport Bill [HL]

My Lords, I support what the noble Lord, Lord Snape, said. I am a former chairman of a bus users’ body and am aware that Bus Users UK does a lot of work. The bus industry provides some of the funding, but a small amount of extra funding would provide a very effective means of representing bus users. I trust that the Government will thoroughly consider that before, by regulation, they move to a more expensive and more sophisticated system
