Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [HL]Contribution
Very typically for this Government—we saw the same approach with the rail passenger services Bill—their attitude is to say, “Let’s change the structure, the accountability and who’s running it all, and it’s bound to be better. We don’t need to tell you how it’s going to better, but it’s bound to be better because we’re better at it”. Some of us are a bit more sceptical about that and would actually like to know about what is going to be in the guidance—but we get no indication of it from the Bill, and the Minister has not been pressed on it so far, as far as I know.
