Sir Julian Lewis

Conservative — New Forest East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 September 2025

Debate

Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

It is good news that 66% of local authorities recognise the importance of companion bus passes for those disabled people who cannot otherwise use a bus, but given the lack of logic of giving somebody a pass that they cannot use, is this not one of those cases that ought to be taken away from discretion and simply added to statute as a matter of common sense?
