Written Question
Transport: Infrastructure
Wednesday 18th January 2023

Asked by: Kevin Foster (Conservative - Torbay)

Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what recent discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Transport on transport infrastructure between Wales and the South West of England.

Answered by David T C Davies

I have regular discussions with the Transport Secretary on a range of transport measures, including infrastructure between Wales and the South West of England. Sadly, the Welsh Government is against the M4 Relief Road which would be of huge benefit to the region.
