Proceeding contribution from Lord Adonis (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 March 2010. It occurred during Private notice question on Railways: National Express Franchises.


Railways: National Express Franchises

My Lords, I became aware of the allegations when the production company behind the programme to be broadcast this evening contacted me last Tuesday or Wednesday; I cannot recall precisely which day. I have had no communication with Mr Byers since. I have not the faintest idea why Mr Byers said what he said to the undercover reporter, but I notice that he has withdrawn unreservedly the comments that he made.
