00:00On the £2 bus fare, the first thing to say is the Tories only funded that until the end of 2024.
00:08And therefore that is the end of the funding in relation to the £2 capped fare.
00:13I do know how much this matters, particularly in rural communities where there's heavy reliance on buses.
00:20And that's why I'm able to say to you this morning that in the budget we will announce
00:26there'll be a £3 cap on bus fares to the end of 2025 because I know how important it is.
00:33So that'll be there in the budget on Wednesday.
