HC Deb 08 July 1988 vol 136 c793W
Mr. Evennett

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what representations he has received concerning British Rail commuter services to north-west Kent; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. David Mitchell

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State received 16 letters about the reorganisation of services from north-west Kent to London following the announcement of British Rail's May 1988 timetable. Timetabling is a matter for the board, but I understand that the changes were made to reduce delays on these services by simplifying the structure of the services offered.

Mr. Evennett

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what representations he has received concerning British Rail services between London and Gillingham; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. David Mitchell

None, since British Rail introduced its new timetable on 16 May.
