Business question from Lord Coaker (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 April 2017. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Let me try again with the Leader of the House: is it possible in the next few days to have an urgent debate about the appalling state of our roads? In Nottinghamshire, there is a £320 million backlog on road repairs and some of the roads in my constituency are simply shocking. The Government’s response is to give the county council £14 million, but it will take 30 years to repair all of the roads at that rate. This is not good enough and the Government need to do something about it.
