Affordable Bus Fares: Amendment 5

  • Submitted by: Patrick Harvie, Glasgow, Scottish Green Party
  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 16 June 2026
  • Motion type: Amendment
  • Motion reference: S7M-00367.5

As an amendment to motion S7M-00367 in the name of Stephen Flynn (Affordable Bus Fares), insert at end "; believes that the many forms of action and subsidy implemented by the Scottish Government illustrate the failure of the privatised and deregulated model of bus provision; recognises the tireless efforts of campaigners who have made the case for a move to a franchise model and for public ownership, and urges the Scottish Government to ensure that the Better Buses legislation simplifies and accelerates this move by removing bureaucratic barriers and providing funding to Regional Transport Partnerships and local authorities."
