Railways BillContribution
In respect to the points from the noble Lord, Lord Berkeley, I am going to wait for the RAIB report to draw any conclusions from derailments, but the steel procured from Scunthorpe, which is British steel, used generally for ordinary steel rails in the network, is of safety-critical quality. We will wait to see what the report says.
