Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Hoon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 January 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Transport Infrastructure.
Transport Infrastructure
I will send the hon. Gentleman a briefing on Crossrail, as he has misunderstood. The funding for Crossrail is in place. [Interruption.] The only threat to Crossrail—perhaps the hon. Member for Chipping Barnet (Mrs. Villiers) is giving us the benefit of her point of view from a sedentary position—is from the prospect of a Conservative Government. The Conservative party's proposal contains an unfunded gap. If the Conservative party cuts transport infrastructure as it proposes to do, Crossrail might not have sufficient funding.
