Railways: Ashford Kent

Gregory Barker
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what representations he has received on the future of passenger train services to Brussels from Ashford International station.

Mr. Tom Harris
I have met a number of hon. Members to discuss the issue, which has also been the subject of two Adjournment debates in the last eight months. In addition, I have received a small number of letters from hon. Members, and around another 30 letters from members of the public, local authorities and others.
