Proceeding contribution from Lord Jackson of Peterborough (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Transport Bill [Lords].


Local Transport Bill [Lords]

Does my hon. Friend agree that not for the first time, one of the key problems with the policy is that there is no robust methodological analysis of the likely take-up of the scheme? That has significant financial implications for local authorities. It is all very well for the Government to announce it, but the fact that they have not done the detailed work to assess the likely take-up will impact on council tax payers across the country, including those in my constituency.
