These regulations describe the “eligible bus services” for the purposes of section 154 of the Transport Act 2000 (“the 2000 Act”). Under that section grants may be made to operators of eligible bus services towards their costs in operating the service. These Regulations re-enact the previous eligibility rules for fuel duty rebates under section 92 of the Finance Act 1965, which is superseded by section 154 of the 2000 Act. But these Regulations (regulation 3(1)(c) and (4)) extend eligibility to services provided by a range of non-profit making community transport bodies whose services do not follow a fixed route or timetable and are for use by particular categories of passengers, rather than the general public.
