The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has made an assessment of the (a) financial impact and (b) potential for delay of her Department's capital projects.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

This government is committed to ensuring that people have access to transport that enables them to travel to the destinations they want to reach and meets their needs. As my Right Honourable Friend the Chancellor has set out, the first step is undertaking an assessment of the spending inheritance from the previous government, and this will be set out before the summer recess.
