There is a statutory requirement to publish a
Post 16 Transport Policy Statement by 31st May each year. Any
proposed changes must also be the subject of a consultation prior
to the change. The only proposed change to the policy for 2022/2023
was included in a wider consultation on home to school transport,
whichtook place between 29th November 2021 and 31st January 2022.
Following that consultation, it has been decided not to proceed
with the proposed change to the Post 16 Policy
Therefore, there are no changes proposed to the 2022/23 Policy
Statement and this will only contain updates to the names of
various bus passes, which are now offered by South Yorkshire
Passenger Transport Executive (SYPTE). These updates have been made
to the draft policy and a copy is attached for information.
Approval is now required to publish the policy in May 2022 in
accordance with the statutory requirement
