Proceeding contribution from Baroness Clark of Kilwinning (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 October 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Railway Industry.


Railway Industry

I think that it is accepted on all sides that there are issues to be addressed; indeed, that was why the previous Government set up the review in the first place. However, the Minister will have listened to what I said about the concern about the methodology used in the ORR report. Is she willing to hear further representations about that from those in the industry who have concerns? Given the publicity that the issue has had in the press, there is clearly a view that the Government will listen to the ORR report rather than taking a more forensic look at how other European railways operate.
