Proceeding contribution from Nick Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 February 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Metal Theft.


Metal Theft

Does my hon. Friend agree that there is a massive problem with cable theft from the Welsh train service? In my constituency, on the Ebbw Vale to Cardiff railway line, there have been terrible delays for commuters. We need to stop this expensive crime, which has such a corrosive effect and prevents people from getting to work.
