The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the total expenditure has been to date by Network Rail, including Network Rail Property and any contractors engaged by it, on work related to the planning application for the redevelopment of London Liverpool Street Station; and what proportion of that expenditure has been incurred in each financial year since the project commenced.

Answered by Keir Mather

The planning application was prepared by Network Rail at a cost of £9.7m. Having secured resolution to grant planning permission by the City of London, the scheme will attract new partners which is expected to provide private investment in the order of hundreds of millions of pounds.
