  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese regulations revoke and re-enact with amendments the Service Subsidy (Tendering) Regulations 1985 (as amended) in so far as those Regulations apply to England.\nRegulation 3 excludes from the tendering requirements of section 89(1) of the Transport Act 1985 various agreements that provide for the payment of service subsidies as part of the provision of a local service. Agreements are excluded where the service subsidy to be paid over a twelvemonth period is less than £25,000 (increased from £12,000 under the 1985 Regulations) provided that the aggregate amount of the non-tendered subsidy under agreements between the person operating the services and one authority over that period is less than £150,000 (increased from £70,000 under the 1985 Regulations).\nRegulation 4 specifies the information that is to be published with respect to tenders submitted in response to invitations to tender made pursuant to s89 of the Transport Act 1985.\nRegulation 5 stipulates the manner in which that information is to be published.",
