Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 October 2024

Debate

Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Bill

Contribution

On engagement, it is also worth noting that local authorities have broadly welcomed our proposal for their greater influence over and specification of their local services, but very few are interested in taking on the operation of services. As I have said, noble Lords will be aware that local leaders do not need to run their own services to have a really significant influence on the way the future railway network serves them.
