That this House recognises the importance to pensioners and the disabled that the National Express concession scheme is maintained during these tough economic conditions; is concerned by the Government's withdrawal of the grant offered to operating companies; further recognises the benefits in terms of independence of giving the disabled and those aged 60 years and over a concession for travel; and encourages the Government to continue to support this scheme from which three million people have benefited so far.
This motion has been signed by a total of 55 MPs.
