Inward Investment (Wales)

Proceeding contribution from David TC Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 November 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Inward Investment (Wales).

I note what the hon. Gentleman says from a sedentary position, but let me turn to the Severn bridge, because that affects all of us in south Wales. Our report shows that little can be done until the original amount that was agreed with Severn River Crossing is paid off, which is expected to happen in 2018. Until then, there will always be inflation-busting increases in charges on the Severn bridge because that is set according to a formula at a certain time of year. There is absolutely nothing that can be done about that because it is a matter of commercial law.
