Midland Main Line Electrification

Debate between Lord Coaker and Keith Vaz

Monday 7th November 2016 Commons Chamber

[Vernon Coaker]

The Minister has made some interesting comments, particularly about the line from St Pancras to Kettering and Corby. Can he, in a nutshell, tell me and the House what he is saying about the Government’s commitment to investment in the electrification of the line from Kettering and Corby to Sheffield, Derby, Nottingham and the stations in between—

[Keith Vaz]

Leicester!

[Vernon Coaker]

And Leicester, of course.
