I would be grateful if you would send me a full detailed copy of the scheme so I review this for myself. It's necessary that this be transparent. Please apply this as a Freedom of Information request.

Our ref: FOI-0075-2021/GH

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 16 April 2020 asking for information about the bus driver retention scheme.

Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require.

A detailed explanation of the scheme is published here: https://www.london.gov.uk/decisions/md2592-bus-driver-retention

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

The Government has announced a series of measures to tackle the Coronavirus. It is essential for London, and in particular for all critical workers, that we continue to provide a safe transport network that enables them to make the journeys they need to.

In current circumstances, we are not able to answer FOI requests readily and we ask that you please do not make a request to us at present.

Answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. In any event, please note that our response time will be affected by the current situation.

If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely

Graham Hurt
