Proceeding contribution from Keir Mather (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 June 2026. It occurred during Debate on bill on Railways Bill.


Railways Bill

The right hon. Lady is right to say that I am well aware of the specific measure that she speaks to. Having the relationship between GBR, the mayors and political representatives in Westminster, such as herself, is critical, and it is part of the purpose of GBR to better facilitate those conversations. I am sure that, through its establishment, she can take forward the debate on this particular matter with her usual passion.
