OYSTER CARD AND CASH FARES ON LONDON TRANSPORT

That this House is concerned at the growing disparity between cash fares and Oyster card fares on London transport; believes this to be ill-conceived and contrary to efforts to bring new or occasional passengers onto London's tube and buses; believes this to be particularly unfair on tourists and visitors to this great city; and questions in particular the need for Mayor Livingstone to increase single cash bus fares from 60p to £2 during his time in power.
