Lord Tony Berkeley asked her Majesty’s Government whether any legislation is required to enable them to provide a Public Service Obligation or Public Service Contract in connection with a passenger or freight transport service to the Isles of Scilly.
Earl Attlee responded: Whether any proposal for a Public Service
Obligation or Public Service Contract was covered by existing legislative
powers would depend upon the details of the proposal and the circumstances in
which it was made. Relevant existing
legislation includes Council Regulation (EEC) No 3577/92 and section 34 of the
Transport Act 1968 in relation to ferries and EC Regulation 1008/2008 in
relation to air travel. Any such
proposal would also have to comply with EU State Aid rules.
