HC Deb 04 February 2002 vol 379 c737W
David Davis

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what proportion of Strategic Rail Authority spending will be made in(a) London, (b) the south-east of England and (c) Yorkshire and Humber in the next 10 years. [32096]

Mr. Spellar

Each individual rail project and improvements negotiated through franchise agreements will usually benefit more than one part of Britain. The Strategic Rail Authority has therefore not attempted to break down its planned expenditure on a regional basis.
