High-speed Rail

Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 December 2013. It occurred during Select Committee statement on High-speed Rail.

My constituents are understandably worried, as I am, that the KPMG report indicated that there could be a net economic disbenefit to Kettering of £50 million. Will the Transport

Committee encourage the Government and HS2 Ltd to commission further research from KPMG or another independent body to try to assuage some of the genuine concerns in constituencies such as mine? If High Speed 2 does come, surely all of us would want it not to have a negative impact on large parts of our country.
