That this House congratulates the North East Regional Youth Assembly on its campaign for regional concessionary fare bus travel for young people aged 14 to 19 years in full-time education or accredited training; believes such provision should be approved and supported by regional agencies and local authorities as it would contribute to the improvements in education and skills the region needs by assisting young people to have full access to the excellent educational and training opportunities in the region; and calls upon the Government actively and enthusiastically to endorse the campaign and encourage the Government Office North East and the regional development agency ONE North East to work towards the introduction of such a scheme.
