Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 December 2010. It occurred during Urgent question on Winter Weather.
Winter Weather
My hon. Friend is absolutely right. A major part of the problem that we experienced yesterday was lack of information flow. Some train operators have already supplied BlackBerrys to on-train crews so that they can be given real-time updates to advise passengers of what is going on. We must take that process further. The least we ought to be able to do for passengers if they find their journeys disrupted is to give them accurate information about what is going on.
