The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lilian Greenwood on 2015-10-27.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 23 October 2015 to Question 12540, whether the process for Government approval of bus regulation as part of devolution deals referred to in that Answer will require secondary legislation or his formal permission.

Andrew Jones

The Buses Bill will be introduced later in this Parliamentary session, so proposals are still in development. It is therefore too early to confirm the process that may be proposed through the Bill.
