HC Deb 17 March 1976 vol 907 cc579-80W
Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what are the terms of reference for the proposed Rail Committee for London; when he will announce the members; when the proposal for such a committee was made to him; and when he received the views of the Greater London Council.

Dr. Gilbert

The London Rail Study published in November 1974 recommended that a London Rail Advisory Committee be set up. GLC declared its support in December 1975. Department of the Environment officials are discussing with the GLC and other parties concerned the terms of reference and other arrangements, and we hope to make a joint announcement soon.
