Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morgan of Cotes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rail Investment.


Rail Investment

I congratulate the Secretary of State and his team on announcing such a significant amount of investment despite the economic legacy left to them by the previous Government. I also welcome his clear comments about midland main line electrification; I appreciate that we shall have to wait for that. His statement did, however, mention the midland main line—a fact that seems to be lost on Opposition Members. Could he enlighten the House about the improvements that will be made to the midland main line in the current period?
