Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) BillContribution
It is clear that the railway network as a whole will not work if local authorities do not have influence over their areas, but I wish to distinguish between influence—the sort of influence that we are discussing with Greater Manchester—and the actual operation of the services. Ownership and operation are not necessary for services to address local and regional demands for services and facilities.
