The Railways Bill will be debated in full when Parliamentary time allows, after receiving its formal First Reading in the House of Commons yesterday. The next step is Second Reading, when there will be a full debate. Transport secretary Heidi Alexander told MPs: ‘Today’s passengers are at the mercy of a complex system of poorly co-ordinated organisations, all incentivised to look inward and outsource blame. GBR will put an end to this.’
