RESOLVED/-
That the start of bus franchising and the significant work to get to that point be noted.
That in relation to HS2, it be noted that without clarity on Government’s position a discussion at this stage would be premature and that GM remained committed to making the case for HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail to be delivered in Greater Manchester.
That it be noted that a report on the acquisition of bus depots was due to be received by the GMCA with the recommendation to endorse the simplification of the process relating to the acquisition of depots. This would allow TfGM to buy depots directly, rather than by the GMCA who would then need to lease to TfGM who in turn would need to lease to operators.
