Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 February 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Sustainable Railways.
Sustainable Railways
The bulk of the subsidy obviously goes into Network Rail, and a number of the franchisees get direct subsidies for particular services at particular times. My concern is that we are putting in a vast amount of public money for which we are not getting the best return.
