Proceeding contribution from Daniel Byles (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 March 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rail Reform.


Rail Reform

I thank my right hon. Friend and warmly welcome the statement, which shows a clear commitment to improving the existing rail network. However, we cannot completely separate the high-speed rail project from rail reform. Will my right hon. Friend reassure the House that the colossal sums of money being invested in high-speed rail will not in any way minimise the investment going into the existing railway system?
