HC Deb 17 May 1978 vol 950 cc658-9

'(1) All those county councils who have under this Act to prepare and publish an annual public passenger transport plan shall include in the plan, whenever it is published or republished, the following matters relating to travel concession schemes (meaning schemes for the reduction of waiver of fares or charges on public passenger transport services in favour of special categories of persons).

(2) The matters to be included in the plan are:

  1. (a) an account of what (if any) travel concession schemes are operative in the county or planned for early introduction, being schemes which are wholly or partly financed, or the subject of financial contribution, by 659 the council themselves or by any of the district councils in the county;
  2. (b) the nature and extent of the concessions available under those schemes;
  3. (c) proposals for introducing new travel concession schemes such as are mentioned in paragraph (a) above, or for extending or improving existing schemes; and
  4. (d) the reasons why (if it be the case) in any part of the country either no such schemes are operative or existing schemes are inadequate."—[Mr. John Ellis.]

Brought up, read the First and Second time, and added to the Bill.
