Motion Text

That this House believes that the scheme for pensioners to travel free on local buses from next April should be extended to cover journeys by tram; and further believes that failure to do so would unfairly discriminate against those pensioners who travel by tram and those council tax payers who might be asked to fund such a system at local level.
