Rail Services and Related Transport Matters: Statements.
We are discussing freight trains, the possible closure of ten freight depots and the associated loss of 330 jobs. The latter represents a step backward. We should be discussing reopening old depots and opening new ones. It is important to point out that use of an average freight train can lead to the removal of 50 HGVs from our roads. We should aim to achieve such a development.
