HC Deb 18 April 1988 vol 131 c359W
33. Mr. Cartwright

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he last met the chairman of British Rail to discuss passenger safety on Network SouthEast.

Mr. David Mitchell

I meet the chairman regularly to discuss various matters of mutual interest. At our last meeting the chairman briefed me on the recent tragic incident on the Orpington-Victoria line and on the measures that British Rail is considering in the light of that.
