New Clause 5 - Eurotunnel
Railways and Transport Safety Bill
2:45 pm
Mrs Anne McIntosh (Vale of York, Conservative)
Since the place of my birth and France are two of the closest allies, I can put the hon. Gentleman's mind at rest about that point.
I am making a serious point. We wanted to scrutinise the clauses in part 1 as comprehensively and successfully as possible, and it would be helpful to have had more discussion about the implications for clauses 2 and 13 of the European rail safety directive. There may be another opportunity at a later stage to return to the point, so I beg to ask leave to withdraw the motion.
Motion and clause, by leave, withdrawn.
