Commentary Part 3: Bus Services Section 29:  Effect of scheme: different operational dates and excepted services
101.This section amends section 129 of the TA 2000 in three respects.
102.First, subsection (2) makes changes consequential on the amendment in subsection (3) of section 26, and on the new sections inserted into the TA 2000 by section 40.
103.Secondly, subsection (3) amends section 129(2) so as to add further cases in which section 129(1) (which disapplies provisions of the TA 1985 on the registration of local services) does not apply. The circumstances in which such a registration may be accepted by the traffic commissioner are set out in new section 6B of the TA 1985 (as inserted by section 49 below).
104.Thirdly, subsection (4) repeals the requirement for tenders to be invited within a particular period after the scheme has been made.
