Jo Swinson welcomes cheap travel for pensioners

April 7, 2003 12:00 AM

Jo Swinson with local resident and busBus fares for pensioners are being dramatically reduced thanks to the delivery of yet another manifesto commitment from the Scottish Liberal Democrats.

The Lib Dems are celebrating another victory for Scottish pensioners as elderly travel concessions are brought in.

Jo Swinson, Lib Dem Parliamentary Spokesperson for Strathkelvin & Bearsden said:

"Liberal Democrats are determined to see an improvement in the quality of life for elderly people in Scotland. Cheaper travel is just the latest in a long line of achievements made by the Liberal Democrats on behalf of Scotland's pensioners."

The Lib Dems have already received a great deal of praise for achieving free personal care for the elderly and a free central heating programme aimed at reducing cold-related deaths in the elderly population.

    If you are a resident of the East Dunbartonshire constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
