There were a few new Evening/Sunday services in the St Helens review but nearly all of them (apart from the Sunday daytime 30) were subsidised.

Another question to be asked is how many of these additional evening/Sunday services will be run by the current daytime operator? Arriva, the major operator in this area, currently run the 58, 300 and 310 and if these services are not run by Arriva, this could inconvenience people who currently buy Arriva weekly/monthly tickets. This situation already exists with the 56 which is operated by Arriva M-Sat daytime but HTL evenings/Sundays.
