Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide an update on when the Fair Fares Review will be published.
Answer
The Scottish Government is pleased to announce that today we will publish the Fair Fares Review.
The Review sets out a range of actions to be taken in the short, medium and long term to make our public transport system more available, accessible and affordable to the people of Scotland, and ensure that it is of high quality, whilst maintaining its long term financial sustainability.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank those stakeholders and delivery partners who have engaged with Transport Scotland on the Review. I look forward to working with them as we progress the Review`s recommendations and actions and make public transport the preferred choice for most people in Scotland.
