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

Public Transport

I hope the Minister recognises that I was in no way grudging about the scheme. We certainly welcome visitors to Worthing and Adur, both tourists and others. However, I should like to know how she calculated the number of additional visitors to Worthing who were likely to take advantage of the scheme. The figure is entirely arbitrary, and we are not convinced of the exactness or the rigorousness of the formulae that the Government used.
