I seem to recall that the government will grant £50 million to the local authorities to compensate for loss of income and there was something about another £50 million.

it costs £1-50 at hyndburn fer pensioners and disabled, £1-00 of which is refunded when ya return yer locker key, so if hyndburn does come under this scheme there i would estimate 40 max pensioners use it, the government are spending £20 on yer, stop moaning jim.
