Proceeding contribution from Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 26 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Crossrail Bill.

Crossrail Bill

I hear what the noble Lord says, but I return to the fact that this is an objectionable subsection; I cannot see the purpose of it. If he is saying that if the parties—the constructor, the ORR and Network Rail—cannot come to an agreement, then they can bring their problems to the Secretary of State who will somehow dissolve those problems, I do not believe it. The clause may give the noble Lord comfort, but it gives me none at all. I urge him to go away and think about it before Report.
