HC Deb 11 March 1996 vol 273 cc468-9W
23. Sir David Madel

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he plans next to meet the chairman of Railtrack to discuss future investment; and if he will make a statement. [18015]

Mr. Watts

My right Hon. Friend has regular meetings with the chairman of Railtrack to discuss all aspects of Railtrack's business. Railtrack's plans for its expenditure on the network are set out in its network management statement, published on 20 December 1995. This document shows that Railtrack is planning to spend over £1 billion per year over the next 10 years.
