279.Section 267 amends section 189 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999 which provides for appeals against decisions of Transport for London relating to London service permits to be made to the Mayor. (A London service permit is a permit to operate a local service in Greater London which is not part of the London bus network as defined in section 181 of that Act.) Provision is made instead for such appeals to be heard by an independent panel.
