§ 13. Mr. AdleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what role he envisages for the railway within transport policy.
§ Mr. FreemanBritish Rail's network is an important part of the transport system in this country. It will benefit from our policy of aiming to improve all forms of transport. Railways can make their contribution to a safer, more efficient and less environmentally damaging transport system. They will do this by providing a service that people choose to use on the grounds of convenience and cost.
