Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2026

Debate

Railways Bill

Contribution

Noble Lords will see in the discussion document that improving accessibility is a key part of the objectives to evolve the passenger offer, to better meet needs and encourage more people to use the railway. I can absolutely assure the Committee that the Government are looking to engage with disability groups on the development of the strategy in the coming months. The noble Baroness has eloquently set out what should be included in an accessibility strategy; I am more than happy to take that away and discuss it further with her and the noble Baroness, Lady Brinton.
