The Government will create a committee of experts to analyze the railway situation in Spain in a 'White Paper'

The first vice president of the Government and Minister of Economy and Transport, Carlos Body, said this Friday that the Executive will announce on Monday the creation of a committee of railway experts, which could be "the seed of a State pact on infrastructure."

Corps has opened the electoral debate focused on the economy, together with Juan Bravo (PP), José María Figaredo (Vox) and Pablo Bustinduy (Frente Amplio), with "a message of remembrance" for the victims of the train accidents that occurred this year in Urda (Toledo), as well as those that occurred in January in Adamuz (Córdoba) and Gélida (Barcelona), which caused 116 victims.

"The Government will announce on Monday that a technical commission will be created," which will serve "to create a 'White Paper' with recommendations that could be the seed of a state pact on infrastructure," said Corpus, which after the resignation of the previous head of Transport Óscar Puente on November 3, is in charge of that portfolio.

He has also referred to sending a message of "accompaniment to the victims" of these accidents, and has referred to the "assumption of political responsibilities", which in his opinion was made with Puente's resignation.

The Corps has also referred to the need to advance in the investigation of the causes of the accidents.

When referring to the investments needed by the Spanish railway system, Corpus has indicated that there is an agreement for the entire railway system that takes into account the degree of use or the age of these tracks.

"Drinking from this technical analysis, the investment has been calculated," he noted, while reiterating that during "the last 40 years a continuous investment has been made."
