HC Deb 19 May 1998 vol 312 c317W
Mr. Llwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what initiatives are planned to help reduce the amount of(a) traffic and (b) freight on Welsh roads. [42226]

Mr. Hain

Our plans to develop an integrated transport policy will be set out in a UK wide White Paper on transport to be published shortly. At around the same time, a Welsh Transport Policy Statement will be published drawing out those issues of particular relevance and importance to Wales including, of course, measures to reduce congestion on Welsh roads. On freight, we have already taken a significant step forward with this week's announcement of Welsh Office support for the creation of a new Eurofreight terminal in south Wales.
