HC Deb 30 October 1996 vol 284 c136W
Mr. Chidgey

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many levels of service were higher under British Rail than the levels which have been specified in the passenger service requirement set out by the Office of Passenger Rail Franchising. [1048]

Mr. Watts

The minimum level of service required of British Rail on any route is one train per week. In practice much more extensive services have been provided. All PSRs provide higher levels of service than the minimum required of British Rail.

A more specified answer could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
