Registration of a new school service to Wilnecote and Fazeley, areas NX currently don't operate in:
https://www.vehicle-operator-licensing.service.gov.uk/search/find-registered-local-bus-services/details/535623/

Registration of the changes to the 58/99 as well:
58 Solihull to Kingshurst:
https://www.vehicle-operator-licensing.service.gov.uk/search/find-registered-local-bus-services/details/535860/
32 Shirley to Lyndon:
https://www.vehicle-operator-licensing.service.gov.uk/search/find-registered-local-bus-services/details/535880/

Notice there are variations to a few other services as well such as:
X1/X2, 49, 74, 6, 72, 73, 16, X12, 5, 31, 1/A and 50.
Presumably other than the X12, the others are just amendments to the timetable?
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

The Tamworth service is a school service
St Fransics of Assisi, Aldridge to Tamworth currently operated by Solus coaches.

I guess the 32/58 is the EX 99. The Councillor of Kingshurst has been pushing for a bus from Solihull to Kinghurst after loosing the 71 in April 2017.
952A Rugeley
Via Great Barr,  Walsall, Cheslyn Hay, Cannock, Heath Hayes and Hednesford

Some of those may just be end of school holiday timetables, or just minor adjustments.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

More wasted branding, when buses in others area don't get any. I stand to be corrected.

24 cancelled have I read that right ?

It's probably because the 24 will be on the 23 registration, as did the 82 some years ago had it's registration cancelled and put onto the 87 registration instead

Juat out of curiosity what are the benefits of doing this? Are there only a certain amount of registrations one company can have so it frees up another space or something? Or is it to do with interworking?
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

It's normally on the advice of the TC. It also saves costs as there's only one fee to pay each time there's a timetable change

Which makes sense really. Am I right in saying that they have to share a certain proportion of route mileage to be classed as a "varient" of the "main route" on the registration?

I wonder if the other Igo routes that NXWM took up will be retendered too. No more E200s to Rugby?
