HC Deb 25 November 1991 vol 199 c398W
25. Mr. Carrington

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he next plans to meet the chairman of London Transport to discuss improvements to the underground network.

Mr. Freeman

My right hon. and learned Friend and I meet the chairman of London Transport regularly to discuss a variety of issues, including improvements to the underground network. The increase in grant announced in the Chancellor's autumn statement means that the Underground will have the resources that it needs to provide London with a system described by the chairman as a "decently modern metro".
