Recommendation (the committee's words)
Additional funding for home-to-school transport is necessary in the short-term. Therefore, the Government should assess the benefits of introducing new statutory guidance aimed at encouraging the use of less costly forms of shared transportation. In response to this Report, the Government should set out the results of this assessment in full.
