Arriva Blyth have moved 7502, 7506 and 7636 to Ashington due to this problem, and Go North East have a lot of buses affected too, mainly some of the Tyne Valley 10 ones, eg 6071, 76, 80
I don't know why all of this has come to light this month, but it seems a general issue, not just stagecoach.
Presumably these were covered by an exemption due to new vehicle orders, which haven't quite arrived yet.
