Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Rob Marris (Labour), on Tuesday, 11 November 2003, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 27 members in total.
AVIATION AND RAIL TRAVEL
That this House supports efforts to encourage travellers to use railways instead of short haul flights, but notes that, whereas several airlines allow booking up to one year in advance, railway operators in, for example, France and Belgium, do not allow booking more than three, and sometimes only two months in advance, thereby making it less likely that families will book their holidays by rail instead of by air; and calls upon the United Kingdom Government to encourage such railway operators promptly to introduce booking up to one year in advance.
