Mr. Wray

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many school buses have been brought into service since 1997. [125202]

This information is not collected.

Statutory home to school transport in England is arranged by local education authorities. They may provide passes for eligible pupils to use on scheduled bus services, or negotiate contracts for dedicated bus services with bus operators.
