Proceeding contribution from Danny Alexander (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 June 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Spending.
Public Spending
No, none of the decisions was motivated in the way that the hon. Lady suggests. I have received representations from Members from a number of political parties on this matter. The key issues are affordability and value for money, and that project does not meet those tests. However, we continue to be supportive of it and officials will continue to work with the company to help it to try to secure private investment, which we think is perfectly justifiable for that worthwhile project.
