HC Deb 15 June 1976 vol 913 cc114-5W
Mr. Crouch

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether, in view of the recent and impending increases in bus fares, and of the withdrawal of concessionary fares for schoolchildren during peak hours, he will review the policy regarding the extension of the limit for free school travel.

Mr. Mulley

In view of the many and conflicting reactions to my consultative document I am not able to forecast any date for the introduction of the necessary legislation to change the existing statutory limits.
