RMT Press Office:
Transport union RMT, today responded to the Budget, the first by a Labour Chancellor in over 14 years.
Mick Lynch, RMT general secretary said: "We welcome the Chancellor's move in relaxing fiscal rules, something we’ve campaigned for, which will allow greater investment in public transport infrastructure and benefit the country as a whole.
"We now need to see bold and ambitious plans to invest in our public infrastructure and RMT will be campaigning into next year’s spending review to make sure public transport can play its key role in national renewal.”
