Mr McLoughlin
I will certainly bear in mind the hon. Gentleman’s comments. He has always fought hard for an improved service for his constituents and in the Sheffield area. I will look closely at what he has said.

14. Does the new Secretary of State recognise the need for electrification in the Tees valley so that we can have a metro service to connect the large conurbation together?
Mr McLoughlin
I take that as a bid, and it is one that I will look at in more detail. I am sure that I will hear much more about it from my hon. Friend.
