Rail Infrastructure: Wales

To answer the hon. Gentleman’s point, we remain committed to the position as stated. It will continue to be the case that the UK Government will fund the projects in England and Wales, and I will talk a little bit about the enhancement pipeline. This point needs to be made more to the hon. Member for Slough (Mr Dhesi). I listened carefully to his question about HS2’s Barnett consequentials, which will add to the bill for HS2. It is already a mission of mine to restrain costs to the level that we are currently running. I did not receive a clear answer, so if he believes, as I think he stated, that the Welsh Government will be in this space, it will be interesting to get absolute clarity—not just, “We will look at it.” Is it the case that all of the points he has made will add to the bill for HS2?
