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


Public Transport

It is important that, when local people vote for their councillors, they can vote for extensions to the scheme. I simply point out the bureaucratic difficulties that companies face through the anomalies that are thrown up. They make the scheme unpopular with some bus companies, which have to deploy their staff to administer the scheme rather than explore new services that they can provide or expand their businesses in the way in which they wish.
