Complimentary Remembrance Day Bus Travel on FirstBus for Veterans, Cadets and Serving Armed Forces Personnel
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the news that Clackmannanshire veterans are to be among those able to travel for free to memorial events around the country this Remembrance Sunday; understands that First Scotland is providing free travel to all armed forces personnel, veterans and cadets travelling to services and events; notes that all those showing their uniform and badges, or a recognised ID badge, can claim free travel on 10 November 2019 as they travel to and from Remembrance Day events; acknowledges that the concession is in honour of all the fallen and surviving veterans of conflict, and that the three operating companies, First Aberdeen, First Glasgow and First Scotland East, will be honouring the offer, and commends First Scotland on its highly magnanimous gesture.
