HC Deb 21 April 1993 vol 223 cc94-5W
Mr. Wilson

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he expects his Department's working group on the future of the London travelcard to complete its deliberations; and if he will publish the results.

Mr. Norris

The working group is exploring with transport operators in both the public and the private sector how the London travelcard is most likely to adapt over the next few years to changes in the provision of public transport services, including the franchising of rail services and the privatisation and deregulation of bus services. The conclusions will no doubt be reflected in the announcements which will in due course be made, in the usual way, about changes in the operators' fares.
