HC Deb 01 November 1989 vol 159 c191W
Mr. Snape

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the total expenditure incurred by London Regional Transport and London Underground Limited arising from the King's Cross Underground fire.

Mr. Portillo

London Regional Transport estimated last year that £266 million needed to be spent between 1989–90 and 1991–92 on proposals to enhance underground safety following the King's Cross fire. It is expected that about £80 million of this will be incurred in 1989–90.
