New Trains (Investment)

I note that making an announcement about capacity on a particular line has laid me open to a general discussion abut capacity on all our lines. I repeat that I recognise that there are capacity issues to be addressed. We have a very significant programme of investment in capacity, along with a programme to establish where new lines will be required to relieve those capacity problems. That is something to which the Government are committed. I have to say that those on the hon. Gentleman's Front Bench are not committed to spending the same amount on transport infrastructure as we are spending.
