It's a partnership after all, isn't it?

It’s worth noting that operators have to declare the amount of revenue taken to the Local Authority, where a commercial service has been enhanced in frequency or in terms of span of operation.

If these services are commercially viable, then the Local Authorities won’t be parting with any BSIP subsidy.

If they aren’t, then the subsidy covers the difference, until the point at which the service becomes commercially viable.

This is a good - and hopefully sustainable - use of the funding.
