The scheme, which launched in January, gives free bus travel to five to 21 year olds in Scotland.
Fewer than a third of those eligible for free bus travel under a Scottish government scheme have been issued with passes, figures show.Of the 1,008,197 people aged five to 21 who can apply, only 317,920 have received their passes.
South Lanarkshire has the lowest uptake in Scotland, with only 15% of the eligible population currently taking advantage of the free travel. However, there is a mixed picture among the islands, as Shetland has seen 37% of young people receive passes.Labour councillor Jim Clocherty said the success was down to the council's encouragement of schools to help pupils register for the scheme.
