Subject to parliamentary approval, secondary legislation will seek to increase the level of antisocial behaviour fixed penalty notices and widen the scope of offences covered to include the offence of threatening or abusive behaviour.I recently met National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers general secretary Eddie Dempsey, who was very positive about our approach and expressed a wish to see similar progress across the United Kingdom.Legislation to enable the suspension of access to the national concessionary travel scheme for those who behave inappropriately on buses is also advancing, supported by bus operators, who view that as an important step to improve driver and passenger safety.I have also raised funding concerns directly with the British Transport Police, and my officials are exploring options to support greater visibility and safety of policing across Scotland’s railway.
