High Speed Rail (Preparation) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 June 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on High Speed Rail (Preparation) Bill.

I can understand that. I think that the right hon. Lady is making a wider point about the need to look at the whole compensation scheme, and I shall come to that in a second.

Property owners in my constituency have not yet had any experience of the exceptional hardship scheme, but I wonder whether it could be widened to include those who want to move and make the same choices for their families as anyone else could make, but who are unable to do so while the potential blight from the high-speed line is hanging over them.
