Rail Infrastructure: Wales

Proceeding contribution from Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 May 2023. It occurred during Debate on Rail Infrastructure: Wales.

I thank the Minister, because he allows me time to provide clarification. It was the previous Labour Government that provided devolution so that the good people of Wales could decide on more aspects of their lives on a day-to-day basis. That is why we have said that we will look into further devolution on aspects such as transport—unlike the current Government, who say they fund the rail and transport infrastructure for the whole of England and Wales. That is all fine and dandy, but they are not providing sufficient infrastructure spend in Wales. The problem is chronic underspending, and that is something that the Minister still has not explained.
