(05 Mar 2019, 8:38 pm)Michael wrote Also confirms investment of £6m over 2 years for new buses
Besides the seven Volvo B11RT/Caetano Levante III vehicles already in service on National Express work two Enviro 200MMCs are on order for Pocklington and Bridlington (we understand these comprise a 10.8m and an 11.8m vehicles. Also due for Hull are 11 Enviro 400MMCs. The E200MMCs and the Enviro 400MMCs will all be built at ADL’s Scarborough site.
A further 16 double deck buses will be rebuilt to as new condition for the Scarborough operation. It is not known if these will be mid-life transfers from other Go Ahead companies or from the existing East Yorkshire fleet.
(05 Mar 2019, 9:19 pm)S813 FVK wrote A tweet later in the day indirectly disputed the 2 year timescale, saying "...£6m investment in new and improved buses for this year...". I suspect one may have been referencing actual years, while the other a financial year which splits across two actual years but I can only speculate on that one.

The £6m appears to include the 7 National Express coaches already delivered and in service (1-7), 2 new single deckers split between Bridlington and Pocklington, 11 new double deckers for Hull and 16 refurbished buses for Scarborough.
Steven Knight Media has included some more information in their piece on the launch today:

(08 Mar 2019, 5:26 pm)Malarkey wrote Looking at the fleetlist I am struggling to put 16 vehicles together for refurb in the current fleet as the vehicles types EYMS have are of various ages.
So in the current fleet i'd go with the Enviro 200's 502/3/4 and Enviro 400's 778/779 and 901 to 910 making the 16 otherwise i'd go with something cascaded from elsewhere in the Go-Ahead Group.

782 is the first of the refurbished buses for Scarborough, having being spotted at Bus & Coach World. Would expect these to be allocated across services 12/13 and 128 - the only 'regular' double deck routes to operate out of Scarborough.
Indeed, promotional material has made its way out for services 12 and 13, which will gain the 'Coaster' brand name.

Coming to our network later this month... 8 double decker buses are being refurbished to include new more comfortable seats, tables, USB chargers, on-board Wi-Fi, new flooring and under seat 'mood lighting'. We'll bring you more on this when they go out on the road...
