§ 29. Mr. FearnTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the amount of Government money to be invested in each form of transport over the next three years in order to achieve the stated aim of a balanced transport policy.
§ Mr. ParkinsonDuring the next three years, investment in transport by my Department and the nationalised industries for which I am responsible will come to £11.5 billion and plans would support some £2.5 billion by English local authorities. About £7 billion will be invested in rail, bus, air and ports and some £7 billion on roads if local authorities' present allocation between modes continues.
