Consultation on seatbelt requirements for dedicated school transport - Analysis report

Scottish Ministers have had a long-standing intention to make seat belts a legal requirement on dedicated school transport and the current SNP administration included a manifesto commitment on the issue ahead of the 2016 Scottish Parliament Election. Following the devolution of powers from the UK Parliament to the Scottish Parliament in this area in 2015, the Scottish Government launched a consultation to consider future legislation to make seat belts on dedicated school buses mandatory.
