Transport (Investment)

Debate between Eric Ollerenshaw and Baroness Primarolo

Tuesday 26th October 2010 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

Order. I will take the last five Members, because they have been waiting very patiently, but I ask them and the Secretary of State in reply please to be very brief.

[Eric Ollerenshaw (Lancaster and Fleetwood) (Con)]

I want quickly to congratulate the Secretary of State on how much he has achieved for transport in these straitened economic times. In particular, I welcome his commitment to the Heysham port to M6 link road, which I assure him has the full support of Lancashire county council and Lancaster district chamber of commerce. Will he assure me that his Department will be as proactive as possible to ensure that we see a completion date for this scheme, which has been on the table for the past 30 years?
