Written Answers
Digital Technology: Older People
Asked by: Gill Furniss (Labour - Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough)
Friday 11th September 2026

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to ensure that older demographics in particular are safeguarded from the impacts of digital exclusion.

Answered by Vicky Foxcroft - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport)

Everyone in every community should benefit from technology but we know some people face real barriers.

That’s why in 2025 we published the Digital Inclusion Action Plan, helping over a million people get online and benefitting communities across the UK through the £11.9 million Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund. A significant proportion of funded projects supported older people.

Government is also clear that digital services should work for everyone, including access through offline routes to essential public services.

Trams: Fares
Asked by: Gill Furniss (Labour - Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough)
Wednesday 14th October 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if there are plans to extend the £2 bus fare cap to tram networks such as Sheffield's Supertram.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

As buses are the most widely used form of public transport in England, the Department is prioritising support for lowering bus fares as part of the Government's plan to give families more breathing space. Given the finite funding available, the Government has focused its investment where it can have the greatest impact for the largest number of passengers.

Responsibility for light rail, including tramways, is devolved in England. Local authorities own and are responsible for the operation and financial sustainability of their systems, including the setting of fares. Local transport authorities have received significant Government funding settlements to support local transport priorities and may choose to use this funding to support tram services or reduce tram fares where that aligns with local priorities.
