HC Deb 07 November 1995 vol 265 c751W
Mr. Martlew

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to his answer of 25 October,Official Report, columns 578–79, if he will provide a breakdown of the £7 million European funding awarded indicating the amount allocated to each project, the terms of reference and the timetable for the project. [41258]

Mr. Watts

The funds were awarded to project costs incurred in 1995 as a whole, and not to any particular phase of the west coast main line scheme. Most of the relevant work in 1995 will be on feasibility studies, including the examination of the use of an in-cab control system and running high-speed trains and physical works to allow the running of European passenger services as far as Glasgow.
