PLAN TO SELL-OFF RAIL SAFETY ADVISERS
Labour has condemned plans for the
sell-off of the organisation which will
advise the privatised railways on
safety procedures.
According to the Independent on Sunday,
which has obtained a leaked letter from
British Rail, the Quality and Safety
Services organisation is to be sold off
later this month.
The letter says the BR board has
"entered into detailed discussions"
over the sale of the organisation.
Labour's Michael Meacher said the sale
would create a "dangerous" monopoly.
