CONCESSIONARY TRAVEL ON PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Early day motion 322, tabled 9 December 2002 by Lynne Jones (Labour). Signed by 97 members.

That this House notes the recent report from the Commission for Integrated Transport; and acknowledges the desire to provide half-price travel to students and unemployed people, but supports the call from the national Pensioners Convention that the Government should reject any suggestions that pensioners and disabled people should lose their existing entitlement to free travel on public transport in order to give concessions to other disadvantaged groups.

Signatures by party: Labour 70, Liberal Democrat 15, Labour/Co-operative 6, Conservative 4, Plaid Cymru 1, UUP 1.
