WREXHAM, SHROPSHIRE, MARYLEBONE RAILWAY

Early day motion 1839, tabled 8 July 2009 by Lembit Öpik (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 20 members.

That this House notes the exceptional performance of the Wrexham and Shropshire railway in the spring 2009 National Passenger Survey results; further notes that this company is privately funded and receives no public subsidy; further notes that its overall satisfaction score at 97 per cent. is the highest ever recorded in the National Passenger Survey and that this sets a standard never before equalled by any established train operator; further notes that because this was the first time this company was included in the survey, they were not included in the main league tables; and calls on the Government to ensure that these results are prominently and widely communicated so that all companies are aware of this new higher standard to which to aspire.

Signatures by party: Labour 9, Liberal Democrat 5, DUP 4, Conservative 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
