National Express Rail Franchises

EDM number 1873 in 2008-09, proposed by Graham Stringer on 14/07/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Railways.

That this House believes it is unacceptable for National Express to keep its profitable C2C and East Anglia franchises in order to fulfil its commitments on the East Coast Mainline; and believes that it cannot be in the interest of taxpayers or passengers for the Government to pay for the losses of National Express and to allow them to keep the profits.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
