Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on Update on PTC's Review on Extending Concessionary Fares to Graduating Students Transiting to Next Stage of Education
02 Jul 2024In Parliament
Assoc Prof Jamus Jerome Lim asked the Minister for Transport whether he can provide an update on the Public Transport Council’s review of extending concessionary fares or passes to graduating students, such as those of GCE A-levels, International Baccalaureate or the ITE, before they enter their next stage of education.
Reply by Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:
1. Based on feedback from parents and students, I had earlier suggested to the Public Transport Council (PTC) to consider extending the concession period for graduating students as part of the 2024 Fare Review Exercise. The PTC is reviewing the suggestion.
