§ 18. Ms. HarmanTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport whether he has received a request to meet representatives of the London channel tunnel group; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. FreemanYes. We are well aware of the support from this group of London boroughs for an easterly approach to Stratford for the rail link. My right hon. and learned Friend has told the group that he is not undertaking consultations himself, but that it will be for British Rail to consult once a preferred route is announced.
