RAIL CLOSURE IN NORTHERN IRELAND

Motion Text

That this House recognises the importance of rail travel throughout the United Kingdom; is particularly concerned at the possibility of consideration being given in Northern Ireland to closing, or mothballing the rail line north of Ballymena to Londonderry; is acutely aware of the detrimental effect any closure would have on the people who live on the North Coast and along the North West corridor; and calls upon the Secretary of State to assist in the promotion of railway travel in Northern Ireland.
