§ 18. Dr. McDonaldasked the Secretary of State for Transport what proportion of bus services are being financed through subsidy under the Transport Act 1985
§ Mr. David MitchellOperators registered about three quarters of existing service levels to run without subsidy after deregulation on 26 October, although there are variations from one part of the country to another, I am glad that local authorities have been able broadly to continue the rest of the services, at greatly reduced subsidy.
