Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 June 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Interoperable Rail System) Regulations 2008.
Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Interoperable Rail System) Regulations 2008
That was the bit that I was thinking about. I think it was at my instigation that we actually got it. I simply want to be sure that we will ensure that this will still be reported on and debated in Parliament, and that all the new processes will be brought into the existing structure. If they are, some of my worries are removed because we still have a way of checking and holding someone to account if this goes wrong. That is really what I am after. If the Minister undertakes to ensure that everything will be done to ensure that this safeguard is there, I will feel better about this. It must be there because, despite the previous convictions of the Government—indeed, of all Governments—they stand accused of having been rather too blasé in the past. We need some safeguard in the future.
