Local Transport Bill [HL]

I want to ask the Minister briefly about the application of these quality contract schemes to Wales. In an otherwise extremely helpful note in the Explanatory Memorandum on the territorial applications of the Bill, there is no reference to Clause 18. Can we first clear up whether these quality contract schemes will apply and, if so, how they will be implemented and by whom? Secondly, what consultation has taken place, not only with Ministers in the National Assembly but also the National Assembly itself? I know a later clause is the subject of proper consultation, but these clauses have not been. I wonder if we can get some clarification as to the exact territorial extent and application of Clause 18 and the quality contract schemes.
