35. Mr. Rapson

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on the role of buses in the integrated transport policy. [68298]

Our Transport White Paper last year made it clear that we see buses as having a central role in an integrated transport policy, with a renewed emphasis on quality services meeting passengers' needs. We shall be issuing a further paper shortly setting out our proposals in more detail.
