A question for My Lord Adonis.
Why is catering on trains a 'commercial decision for train operators' when, following the Pilgrimage of Grice, catering provision at stations is now to be determined by a government minister?
Particularly as station catering is nothing to do with the franchised operators, being mostly in the hands of Select Service Partners.
Would the minister care to clarify?
UPDATE: This from Sir Humphrey Beeching...
The Treasury is particularly pleased with this unfunded commitment.
