Contribution

As my hon. Friend knows, we are investing £3 billion in local bus services to both improve the service for passengers and freeze bus fares until at least March next year. This summer there will be unlimited free travel for children aged between five and 15 in his Cannock Chase constituency and across the country. I also give a special shout-out to my mayor, Tracy Brabin, for the beautiful Weaver Network of electric buses, manufactured in Northern Ireland and Yorkshire, and serving the people of West Yorkshire.
