Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2026

Debate

Railways Bill

Contribution

This is a probing amendment. I am happy to discuss with the Minister whether it should be split into different parts because there are some things that I recognise might be challenging to achieve. As we move to GBR, it is essential that we move away from the current state of play whereby train operating companies implement accessible travel policy in different ways. I have amendments in other groups that fit with this. There was a bit of debate as to whether this was the right group for this amendment to sit in; although it relates to long-term strategy, there might be a better place for it in the Bill.
