HC Deb 15 October 1968 vol 770 cc94-5W
66. Mr. James Hamilton

asked the Minister of Transport if he will review the bus fares of children of 14 years of age and upwards still attending school; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Marsh

These fares are a matter for the bus undertakings concerned, subject to the provisions of the Travel Concessions Acts where these apply and subject to the approval of the Traffic Commissioners in other cases. Most undertakings give reduced fares for older pupils on journeys to and from school or college.
