HC Deb 21 January 1994 vol 235 c854W
Mr. Dobson

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will publish a full list of all organisations to which his Department sent, and from which it has received responses regarding the consultation paper on a new system for approving safety of railways and trams, together with the addresses of each such organisation.

Mr. Freeman

[holding answer 18 January 1994]: My Department issued 59 copies of the consultation paper to transport operators, passenger transport executives, trade unions, and manufacturers and we received 15 responses. In addition, a further 25 inquiries were received leading to nine further representations. It is not our practice to identify those organisations or individuals who respond to consultation exercises.
