Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 February 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Sustainable Railways.
Sustainable Railways
I thank my hon. Friend for those comments, and I refer her to paragraph 61 of the report, and the comments of Christian Wolmar, for whom I have a lot of time, as do many others present. He knows an awful lot about the way in which railways operate. Paragraph 61 contains his comments about the current membership structure being too weak, and the fact that if members do not like senior managers' plans, they can do nothing except say that they do not like them.
