Clause 81
Local Transport Bill [ Lords ]
1:10 pm
Rosie Winterton (Minister of State, Department for Transport; Doncaster Central, Labour)
When making the order, the local authority would be able to say that it was prepared for the ITA to make directions over particular roads, but it would be at that point and not at a later stage. The idea is to decide which roads might fall under the scheme at the beginning of the process. We will be issuing guidance on the direction-making powers later in the year. That will obviously be open to consultation, and some of the points that the hon. Gentleman makes now could be made then.
