May I welcome my hon. Friend’s return to the front bench? Although my constituents will welcome the review, they are furious about the terrible disruption across South Western Railway on “mayhem Monday” this week, with seemingly no contingency plans and diabolical communication. Will my hon. Friend ensure that South Western Railway and Network Rail are held to account and made to learn lessons from this week’s mess, especially given the planned Network Rail engineering works this Sunday?

Front Bench

The first bench on either side of the House of Commons, reserved for ministers and leaders of the principal political parties.
