Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Alun Cairns (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 September 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Wales Bill.

I hope I can provide clarity and be helpful. Many interventions earlier—and what the hon. Lady is alluding to—related to Glas Cymru. Can I clarify that Glas Cymru is a private company with no shareholders? Nothing precludes Glas Cymru, or a company such as Glas Cymru, from bidding for the franchise, because the Railways Act 1993 prevents just Crown local authorities or associated bodies from bidding.
