Proceeding contribution from Daniel Byles (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)

I join those who have welcomed the report, which contains a very thorough analysis. The Committee has entered a number of caveats alongside its support for High Speed 2. In the summary, the Committee calls on the Government"““to consider and clarify these matters before it reaches its decision””." Does the Committee believe that the Government should not make a decision until all the points raised in the report have been clarified?
