Don't limit free Lancashire scool bus passes

To reverse the decision to limit free school bus passes only to those on benefits who live more than 3 miles from their nearest school or religious school.

Why is this important?

It is not just families on benefits who are struggling to make ends meet and a charge of over £500 per year is a huge burden to those families who are not now eligible for a free bus pass . Free school transport is an essential for all those who live more than reasonable walking distance from school. This change penalises hard working families.
