Lib Dem victory in bus industry vote

Liberal Democrats won a victory as the Scottish Parliament voted for our proposal to support the bus industry and help it become greener.

Speaking after a Parliamentary debate on the issue, Transport spokesperson Alison McInnes said:

"The bus industry is critical for vast areas of Scotland, especially areas without good train links. Scotland deserves bus services fit for the 21st century.

"We need measures to support the industry through the recession. Greener buses would help achieve Scotland's ambitious carbon targets."
