It appears that the funding will shift from District to County councils
in 2011. That will smooth things out a bit but still needs a grant
formula which relates more closely to actual expenditure.


It's not going to help somewhere like Peterborough[1], which would
presumably have the same problem as Cambridge does now.

[1] Which as we all know is a unitary County.


How short of its concessionary fares spend is the grant it receives? Not
over £1 million as in Cambridge, I bet.
