A case of "Don't ask - don't tell . . . " ?

The question surely is "Are not-green-vehicles being used on routes that were stipulated to be green vehicles (whilst the green vehicles are being used elsewhere when they should be running on the designated route)?"

The questions were specific. I should have included them in my post - sorry. These are as laid out on the original FOI request. Ignore that question 1 is missing, as that was a request for a redacted copy of the original bid.

2) Could you provide me with details of how much use the funded vehicles have seen on routes other than specified in the winning bid? I understand that operators have to provide this information on a weekly or monthly basis to the DfT.

3) Could you advise whether the DfT view the data provided in 2) to be abnormal from what the department would expect to see?

I deliberately worded question 2 like that because I felt it makes them go away and look for examples that they haven't been used on the 308.
