Bus subsidy ‘could cost taxpayer even more’

A number of politicians said they were concerned that the projected income from fares of £2.5m for the first year will not be achieved and more public cash will have to be used to meet any deficit.Senator Paul Le Claire asked: ‘Are we paying for a service that we are not getting that is going to cost more than we were told?’ He also asked when the total costs of running the service will be known.However, Environment and Public Services president Deputy Maurice Dubras said it was too early to say exactly how much would be raised through fares and what the final level of subsidy will be.
