Scottish Overnight Rail Services
EDM number 836 in 1994-95, proposed by Charles Kennedy on 15/03/1995.
That this House notes the additional ú4 million made available to the Director of Passenger Rail Franchising in the Spring Supplementary Estimates; further notes that this sum is to help cover costs of professional advisers' fees incurred in connection with the Franchising Director's duties to designate railway passenger services as eligible for provision under franchise agreements; believes that it is indicative of the approach of both Government Ministers and the Director of Passenger Rail Franchising that, whereas extra funds can be made available for overruns in consultants' fees, a similar commitment cannot be found to maintain the Scottish sleeper and Motorail services over the summer period; and therefore calls upon the Diector of Passenger Rail Franchising to make available from his budget the resources to enable continuation of these services beyond May and to ensure a full and proper consultation process over their futures.
This motion has been signed by a total of 18 MPs.
