BUS services across Wales will be brought back into the public sector after a new Bill was laid in the Senedd today.

The Bus Services (Wales) Bill will bring all services under the control of a government agency, Transport for Wales.

The proposals include providing one network, one timetable and one ticket across Wales, with services based on local knowledge.
