TAKE BACK THE TRACK

Early day motion 179, tabled 10 January 2001 by Michael Clapham (Labour). Signed by 76 members.

That this House congratulates the railway unions on the launch of their campaign 'Take Back the Track' in the face of Railtrack PLC's failure to meet its obligation to provide a safe and efficient rail network; further considers that the current structure is insufficient to restore public confidence and attract people back to rail travel; and consequently calls on Her Majesty's Government to introduce legislation at the earliest possible opportunity to return Railtrack PLC to an appropriate form of public ownership.

Signatures by party: Labour 61, Liberal Democrat 7, Labour/Co-operative 5, Plaid Cymru 2, Scottish National Party 1.
