Labour (Co-op) — Wakefield and Rothwell

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 June 2025

Debate

Local Bus Services

Contribution

The hon. Member will be aware that the Bus Services (No. 2) Bill contains powers to ask local transport authorities to identify specific routes that are of social value and need. That will be particularly important when considering rural areas. She will also be aware that the Department has been supporting a number of design-responsive transport schemes, of which we are undertaking review.
