HC Deb 28 November 1996 vol 286 c350W
Mr. Booth

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what revisions he has made of his instructions and guidance to the franchising director. [7026]

Sir George Young

I have today written to the franchising director enclosing a new, consolidated version of his objectives, instructions and guidance—OIG. This consolidated version, which is being produced for ease of reference, does not change the franchising director's objectives, nor does it materially alter his instructions and guidance, other than to omit those sections of the previous version of the OIG which are now out of date. I am placing a copy of my letter, and the attachments to it, in the Library of the House.
