This Order authorises Network Rail Infrastructure Limited to construct, operate and maintain an extension to the existing sidings at Buxton, Derbyshire together with associated works.

The Order also authorises the construction of a new section of footbridge to extend the existing bridged public right of way over the new railway works. The Order authorises the acquisition of land and rights in land, and the use of land, for those purposes and confers powers in connection with the construction and operation of the railway. Copies of the deposited plans, deposited sections, traffic regulation plan and the book of reference referred to in the Order may be inspected at the offices of the Company Secretary and Solicitor to Network Rail Infrastructure Limited at 1 Eversholt Street, London NW1 2DN.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service has no record of this instrument, although it covers the period. Nothing is inferred from that.
