§ Dame Peggy FennerTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport if an addendum to the outline railway safety case for the channel tunnel rail link has been prepared for the additional provisions to the Channel Tunnel Rail Link Bill deposited in the House last week. [4]
§ Mr. WattsUnion Railways has, in consultation with the Health and Safety Executive, prepared an addendum to the outline railway safety case for the channel tunnel rail link for the additional provisions to the Channel Tunnel Rail Link Bill that were deposited last week. The addendum covers the additional provisions for the Barking extended tunnel; A13 services diversions; Mardyke Park realignment; and the Eurotunnel railway connection. It also covers a prospective additional provision for access arrangements between Northfleet station and the proposed station at Ebbsfleet. That additional provision may be deposited next month. I am arranging for copies of the addendum to be placed in the House Library.
Similar documentation will also be prepared for the additional provisions that I hope will be deposited in Parliament next month. I will ensure that that material is also placed in the House Library.
