Proceeding contribution from Andrew Selous (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on First Capital Connect.


First Capital Connect

I am extremely grateful to my hon. Friend for giving way, and I offer my apologies that I cannot stay for the whole debate because I have a meeting on child poverty shortly. My hon. Friend has put her finger on the nub of the question. Does she agree that it is up to the Department for Transport in future not to award franchises to companies that rely on good will for overtime to run a scheduled service on which our constituents rely to get to work?
