Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Railways.
Railways
My Lords, time is up. The balance between fares and funding is a big issue; we think that we have it about right. Rather than lurch from crisis to crisis, we have tried to provide stability. The noble Baroness makes a good point about climate change. That issue is addressed in the White Paper; we need to be on top of it as the next phase of our planning on the rail network rolls itself out.
