What to do with it
As published

113E Advanced quality partnership schemes: facilities, measures and standards

(1) The facilities which may be specified in an advanced quality partnership scheme— (a) must be facilities provided at specific locations along routes served, or proposed to be served, by local services within the area to which the scheme relates, or facilities which are ancillary to such facilities, but (b) may not be facilities which are required to be provided as a result of section 139 or 140. (2) The measures which may be specified in a scheme— (a) must be measures taken for the purpose of— (i) increasing the use of local services serving the routes to which the measures relate or ending or reducing a decline in the use of such services, or (ii) improving the quality of local services serving the routes to which the measures relate, but (b) may not include the provision of— (i) facilities falling within subsection (1)(a), or (ii) facilities which are required to be provided as a result of section 139 or 140. (3) The Secretary of State may by regulations make further provision about the measures which may or may not be specified in a scheme. (4) The standard of services which may be specified in a scheme includes— (a) requirements which the vehicles being used to provide the services must meet, including requirements about emissions or types of fuel or power, and (b) requirements as to frequency or timing of the services, but the specification of any such requirements is not to prevent operators from providing services in excess of those requirements. (5) The standard of services which may be specified in a scheme may also include— (a) requirements as to the maximum fares that may be charged for particular journeys, or for journeys of particular descriptions, on services to which the scheme applies, (b) requirements as to the ways in which passengers may pay for journeys, (c) requirements about providing information to the public about local services or particular descriptions of local services, and (d) requirements as to the publicising of local services, fares or ticketing arrangements or particular descriptions of local services, fares or ticketing arrangements. (6) Requirements under subsection (5)(b), (c) and (d) may include requirements for operators of local services to co-operate with one another. (7) A scheme may include a requirement falling within subsection (4)(b) or (5)(a) only if there are no admissible objections to the requirement from relevant operators. (8) A scheme may include a requirement falling within subsection (4)(a) or (5)(b) that relates to an undertaking that would fall to be given under section 113C(4)(b) only if there are no admissible objections to the requirement from relevant operators. (9) Section 113N(3) to (8) makes further provision with respect to schemes which include the requirements referred to in subsections (7) and (8).

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
