Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Felicity Buchan and Paul Holmes

Tuesday 11th October 2022 Commons Chamber

[The Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury (Felicity Buchan)]

The Government continue to support the heritage and cultural sector. There are several sources of funding from Government arm’s length bodies such as the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Historic England’s repair grants, so I encourage the hon. Gentleman to look into those.

[Paul Holmes (Eastleigh) (Con)]

Since the 1970s, residents in Eastleigh have long been expecting, and have been promised at times, funding for the Chickenhall Lane bypass, including being allocated funding in the 2015 Red Book. Will the Minister agree to meet me and Hampshire County Council to discuss getting this sorted for people who have simply waited far too long?
