Proceeding contribution from Andrew Turner (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 November 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Transport Committee Report (High Speed Rail).
Transport Committee Report (High Speed Rail)
At present half the money comes from the Government, and a new railway costing about £18 billion is proposed. It is not clear whether people who can currently afford to travel would still enjoy the same benefits. Would the money that is being spent continue to be spent, or would the amount be reduced?
