Proceeding contribution from Paul Clark (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Transport Bill [Lords].

Local Transport Bill [Lords]

There would, of course, be an incentive for the local transport authority, as it would have been charged with providing those services for the bus passengers to whom it was responsible. I have genuinely tried to find out whether there is any belief that this process would be likely to succeed if it went beyond the 12-month period. My conclusion, following the discussions that I have had over the past three weeks, is that it is highly unlikely, and that we should need to find an alternative solution.
