I was going to mention this in the 'Stagecoach Manchester' thread, but at the moment it seems to be applying to a number of areas.
These investigations seem a bit strange, I am not saying they should not happen, but why start them once the takeover has happened?
Such as in Glasgow with McGill’s, the investigation being announced a few weeks after the takeover which meant buses having to be painted back into Arriva livery.
Surely leaving them to after the takeover just causes inconvenience and uncertainty for all involved?
When a takeover is announced why does an investigation not begin immediately? I know some might be because of another company complaining later on, but surely there should be a set amount of time they should have to do this in before the takeover.
Take Wigan, deal announced 31st October, takeover 2nd December and now an investigation announced 11th January.
