HC Deb 17 July 1974 vol 877 c203W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will consider amending the appropriate regulations to enable bus companies to extend the age for half fares from 14 to 16 years.

Mr. Carmichael

There are no such regulations involved. It is within the discretion of bus operators to offer reduced fares for children up to any age, subject to the general oversight of fares by Traffic Commissioners.
