lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, as one of the previous speakers said, what we are all after is the best possible public transport at the lowest possible cost. As another speaker said, we need appropriate solutions for each particular environment. That is the main reason why the principle that local authorities can be free to decide how best to organise public transport within their own areas is such an important one. I would like to make a few comments about running metro systems in large urban areas such as London, where there is a real danger that if we do not allow local authorities to make those decisions, the contracting out will lead to the creation of a monopoly and we will not be any further forward in what we are trying to achieve with this report. The other thing that could happen in areas such as London and other large cities is that the system could be broken up, which could lead to quite severe chaos. So I would urge you all to support Amendment No 61."@en1
