Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 February 2025

Debate

Violence Against Women and Girls on Trains

Contribution

The opportunity for railway travellers to report crime through the 61016 phone number is not limited to what is happening on the train but includes what travellers see from the time they enter the network to the time they leave it. Many trains have one such person or more on them. Equally, in the case of trains that do not generally stop frequently, there is the opportunity of summoning police or other aid to the train.
