Proceeding contribution from Louise Ellman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 July 2008. It occurred during Estimates day on Public Transport.


Public Transport

The absence of bus services in some areas is a very important issue, and it is one of the consequences of deregulation. That issue is being addressed through the new Local Transport Bill, which is before Parliament. It is important that that Bill is sufficiently strengthened to enable the services that are required to meet local needs to be developed.
