Disabled Persons Railcards
Early day motion 1721, tabled 12 April 2021 by Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 7 members.
That this House notes that many Disabled Persons Railcards have not been used due to coronavirus restrictions and shielding advice; commends train companies for providing over £476 million in ticket refunds for people whose travel plans have changed unexpectedly during the coronavirus outbreak; regrets that railcards have been exempt from those refunds; and calls on the Government to implement a free one-year extension for Disabled Persons Railcard customers.
