Proceeding contribution from Andrew Gwynne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.


Local Government Finance

Earlier, the Secretary of State mentioned extra resources for the concessionary fares for shire district councils, yet two weeks ago the Conservative and Liberal Democrat-led Greater Manchester transport authority scrapped the young people's concession and the peak-time pensioners' concessionary fare. That is the reality on the ground, and is it not another example of the unfairness?
