I want to make a couple of brief points to follow up on that. I gave the example of Go-Ahead, how it has been bought and paid for and how it had to be retrofitted and have the colours changed. I am going from memory on this but one of the issues that was pointed out in that was the turning and manoeuvrability space in the buses. Some people were saying it was not quite as good as in buses they replaced. That is relevant to the motorised wheelchairs.
The Minister said the NDA is dealing with the KPIs. I presume then that it should automatically trickle down to the NTA and that it would have its own spreadsheets and KPIs to be able to deal with those issues.
