HC Deb 24 April 2002 vol 384 c289W
Mr. Key

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what assessment his Department has made of the prospects for electrification of the Waterloo to Exeter railway via Salisbury; and if he will make a statement. [50852]

Mr. Jamieson

None. In cases where clear practical advantages or environmental benefits exist, and value for money can be demonstrated, electrification may be considered.
