Lord Woodley (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 January 2025

Debate

Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [HL]

Contribution

My Lords, in moving Amendment 9, I will also speak to Amendment 10 in my name. Although the Bill removes the ban on new local authority bus companies, they will still have to operate within the existing framework and compete with commercial bus operators. Amendments 9 and 10 would allow local authorities to directly award the provision of their local bus services to their company instead.
