Proceeding contribution from Lord Faulkner of Worcester (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.

Localism Bill

My Lords, I was tempted to speak by the noble Baroness, Lady Kramer, as she was tempted to speak by me on the previous amendment. I have a great deal of sympathy with the points she is making. I will start with a correction—also for the noble Lord, Lord Spicer—that it is not only one platform at Waterloo that is out of use; it is platforms 21, 22, 23 and 24. I think I am right in saying that it is 21 and 22 which are being used by the production of ““The Railway Children””, which I can recommend unreservedly. I speak as a trustee of the National Rail Museum, as it is very much our play.
