Baroness Dacres of Lewisham (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 October 2026

Debate

Railways Bill

Contribution

I do have it in my notes. Industry bodies such as the Rail Safety and Standards Board have made important contributions to the railway’s strong safety record, and nothing in this Bill prevents GBR from continuing to engage with it and draw on that expertise to consider how best to improve its safety standards. I hope what I have just said will satisfy the noble Lord regarding his amendment.
