Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Rail Vehicle Accessibility (London Underground Metropolitan Line S8 Vehicles) Exemption Order 2010.


Rail Vehicle Accessibility (London Underground Metropolitan Line S8 Vehicles) Exemption Order 2010

My Lords, I should not like Hansard to indicate that I had not understood what the order was about. I think I have probably indicated that I did understand it, but I was widening the issue slightly to say that these trains are due to be provided by 2020. There must be some contractual arrangement by which they are provided by 2020 fully compliant, and, if they are not, there must be some contractual penalties. I do not mind if the Minister does not have the answer, but that was my question. I agree that it went slightly wider than the order, but I want it to be understood that I understand what the order is about.
