HC Deb 09 March 1981 vol 1000 c262W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will publish in the Official Report his Department's assessment of the relative effectiveness of differing concessionary and subsidised fare schemes operated by local authority transportation committees.

Mr. Fowler

Local authorities must decide, in consultation with operators, what are the most effective local arrangements within the limits of what can be afforded.
