Proceeding contribution from Norman Baker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 January 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Sustainable Transport.
Sustainable Transport
I absolutely agree with that. From memory, the train company that operates in Bristol is the same one that operates the bus service, and it is in the commercial interests of FirstGroup to ensure that the bus is attractively priced to encourage a through journey by rail and bus, rather than encouraging people to drive the whole way, which may be the consequence of that particular pricing policy.
