| Annotation | The Concessionary Bus Travel Act 2007 came into force on 1 April 12008, and aims to provide free, off-peak bus travel for pensioners and disabled people throughout England. This briefing clarifies how the Act will be applied, examines issues of finance, and notes what the Act does not cover and the role of bus companies. It re-states the case for free travel, also the need to monitor that the Act works effectively in all localities. (RH). |
