My Lords, in the light of the draft rail reform Bill, will His Majesty’s Government commit to primary legislation to deliver level boarding and accessible step-free station deadlines?

I accept what the noble Baroness says. We have discussed this outside the Chamber, and it is something that the Government are working hard to improve.
