Still very much work in progress, but seems to have omitted any reference to the X34 serving Frome and Faresaver who operate it (unless I missed it skimming through)

Well spotted rogerw. I have emailed the Somerset BSIP team to let them know, and asked them to ensure inclusion in the final document.

UPDATE - Somerset BSIP team have updated the working draft to include X34 services, along with some other bit and pieces that will smooth the way for decent Somerset-Wiltshire Cross Border bus service improvements in the future. My thanks to them for their swift response and action on this.
