Dear Sir,

Thank you for your e-mail.

I note that the link you provide to Cornwall Council does not contain information in relation to Concessionary Travel, and appears to relate to Supported Routes Operator Grants and Rural Bus Subsidy Operator Grants.

I hope to be able to adopt a similar format, if possible, in response to your FOI request 20th April 2011 (22.12),in respect of operator, period and total reimbursement.
