Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Ian Murray and Patricia Ferguson

Wednesday 30th October 2024 Commons Chamber

[Mr Speaker]

Order. I do not know whether the Chair of the Select Committee is standing or not. Do you want to come in on this question?

[Patricia Ferguson (Glasgow West) (Lab)]

Yes, thank you, Mr Speaker. Does my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State agree that the Drumchapel levelling-up fund bid and the project that would follow from that would be a good way to promote the economic and social growth of the area?

[Ian Murray]

My hon. Friend has been a doughty campaigner for the Drumchapel project. She will not have long to wait, as the Chancellor will come to the Dispatch Box shortly and announce the Budget. I am hopeful that all these projects, including some of the anti-poverty projects that my hon. Friend has championed for years in her constituency, come to pass.
