NATIONAL BUS values "close and harmonious" relationships with most municipal operators, its deputy chairman Robert Brook said in response to the Association of District Councils.
He was responding to the eight-page ADC document (CM. October 22) which effectively accused NBC of acting unfairly. Mr Brook said it was disappointing that the ADC had made its response in such a fashion and urged it to look again at what NBC was saying, It wanted all sectors of the industry to play a part, and added: "I want to make it quite clear that our document is in no way a general attack on local authority bus operators.
"We value our close and harmonious relationships with so many of them. There are just a few who have pursued isolationist policies which inhibit a co-ordinated local approach and have thus become a disbenefit to the public as a whole."
