Pleas for Government help to allow management of Christchurch's bus service to be transferred to the city council have fallen on deaf ears.

A letter co-signed by Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel and Environment Canterbury chairman Steve Lowndes asked for swift changes to be made to the Local Government Act, which currently blocks the transfer of public transport responsibilities from ECan to the city council.

But Transport Minister Phil Twyford said in a letter sent more than a month later that he had no intention to fast-track the changes needed.
