Clause 28
Crossrail Bill
3:15 pm
Tom Harris (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Department for Transport; Glasgow South, Labour)
My understanding is that the effect of the amendment would be to interfere with the ORR’s ability to conduct an access charge review, where it is necessary as a consequence of the amendment of access contracts that conflict with the Crossrail service contracts. That is an accepted industry process. Because it introduces an obligation on the ORR, the amendment interferes with its current obligations.
