A network wide annual or bi-annual review of services and changes taking place on scheduled dates is all it takes to ensure passengers needs are met and bus operations meet requirements.
Each sector/area will have review periods, so why not tie it all together with the timetable Adrian suggests?
I suppose the risk of having only one (or even two) change dates per year is may make companies less inclined to take risks on new services, as they’d have to commit to the loss for a long time.
