Baroness Vere of Norbiton (Con)
I am very grateful to the noble Lord for his helpful intervention.
Lord Haselhurst (Con)
My Lords, can my noble friend provide assurance about some of the small schemes that are in waiting, such as the Ely junction enhancement which will have benefits east, west, north and south?
Baroness Vere of Norbiton (Con)
The Government are investing record amounts in the railways. In control period 7, between 2024 and 2029, we will be investing £44 billion in infrastructure. Obviously I cannot comment on specific schemes at this time, as the RNEP will be published which will set out which enhancements we are able to prioritise.
