HC Deb 29 June 1992 vol 210 c386W
15. Mr. Tipping

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what budget provision exists for light rapid transit schemes in 1992–93; and what is planned for 1993–94.

Mr. Freeman

There is no budget provision specifically reserved for light rail schemes. However, in 1992–93 we are providing resources of at least £50 million for such schemes. We plan to provide at least £53 million in 1993–94.
