HC Deb 09 February 1983 vol 36 c367W
Mr. Murphy

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what publicity is given to the continuing support given by the Government for commuter rail services.

Mr. Eyre

My right hon. Friend and I refer frequently in speeches and elsewhere to the level of support given by the Government to the railway passenger network, including commuter services, and details of the total are published in the Railways Board's annual reports and accounts. I hope that the development of sector management will make it easier to identify the allocation of support between the various passenger business sectors.
