HC Deb 16 December 1997 vol 303 c148W
39. Mr. Öpik

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what plans he has to integrate ticket sales between the rail network and London Underground; and if he will make a statement. [19434]

Ms Glenda Jackson

Train operators and London Transport already have joint ticketing initiatives which cover rail, underground and bus services. We are keen to build on this. It is important that London has a properly integrated transport network, including ticketing. That is why our plans for London governance include establishing a Greater London Authority charged with devising and implementing an integrated transport policy.
