Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what steps his Department is taking to work with the (a) Welsh Government and (b) Department for Transport to ensure that English bus passes used for travel between two English destinations are valid on bus routes which pass through Wales on their journey.

Under Section 93 of the Transport Act 1985 local authorities in England and Wales can agree with neighbouring authorities to offer discretionary travel concessions on local services where the route may cross the border.
