Postponement – inserted section 3G
139.A local transport authority may also postpone the coming into operation of all or part of a partnership scheme by up to 12 months, or for such different period as may be specified in regulations made by the Scottish Ministers. This may be useful where there are unexpected circumstances which delay the provision of a facility or a measure or operators need more time to adapt to a new service standard. The procedure for postponing a partnership scheme (or any part) is set out in paragraphs 9 and 10 of schedule A1.
