§ Mr. CorbynTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what plans he has formulated since his visit to the Barking to Gospel Oak line in December to improve the service to passengers on that line; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. NorrisThe provision of services on the Barking to Gospel Oak line is a matter for North London Railways, one of British Rail's train operating units. I have agreed supplementary credit approvals through the transport policies programme towards a joint bid by local London boroughs for selective station improvements along the line.
