Proceeding contribution from Lord Khan of Tooting (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on High Speed Rail.
High Speed Rail
It is worth my pointing out to the House that on a day when we have announced high speed rail for a 335-mile link, the Scottish Government cannot even agree to the upgrading of 9 kilometres of existing track and the laying of 1.9 kilometres of new track for the Glasgow airport rail link. However, I am sure that they will have heard today's announcement and will want to follow the example that we have set at Westminster.
