Statement by the Department of Transport
01-Jul-2009
Mr. Michael Moore (Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk) (LD): In the 1,500 square miles of my constituency there is not a single railway station, which makes the one at Berwick-upon-Tweed, in my right hon. Friend’s constituency, of great strategic importance to my constituents. Will the Minister give a specific pledge that under Government control and the new contract, services to and from Berwick-upon-Tweed will not be altered unless they are improved?
Mr Khan: The hon. Gentleman has given one example of the sort of thing that we will be considering when the contract next goes to tender. We will see whether we can include such things as a new station. We need to ensure that we take on board the concerns and issues raised by parliamentarians and stakeholders to get the best deal possible for passengers.
