HC Deb 12 November 1991 vol 198 c429W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is his estimate of the proportion of(a) Wales's and (b) Britain's railway network which is electrified; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeman

There are no electrified lines in Wales; as at 31 March 1991, 30 per cent. of British Rail's network was electrified or in the process of being electrified as a result of projects approved or under construction.
