I am happy to talk to my officials about that particular scheme. If I may, I will come back to the hon. Lady in writing.
Chris Webb (Blackpool South) (Lab)
Yesterday in Parliament, I met a number of bus drivers who told me that in their research of 420 routes, 222 did not have any toilets on the route, and 155 of those had no procedures in place for drivers who needed to access toilets during their route. These drivers deserve toilet dignity in their workplace. Does the Minister agree that we need to ensure that those providers give their drivers toilet dignity, and will she meet me to discuss this matter further to ensure they get that access?
Simon Lightwood
I will be pleased to meet my hon. Friend. Welfare facilities for drivers are extremely important.
