Mr McLoughlin
I never comment on rumours, because I have started quite a few of them during my time in this House. I am committed to HS2, which I believe to be very important for this country. We are already seeing the benefits for Birmingham of the investment that is going around.
Peter Aldous (Waveney) (Con)
Lowestoft railway station, which has the great advantage of being in the centre of the town, has fallen into considerable disrepair in recent years. Lowestoft station partners have some exciting initiatives for bringing it back into full use. Will the Minister meet me and them to explore how best to achieve that?
Claire Perry
That would be a pleasure. There are many funding pots, including local growth fund money, that could help to regenerate Lowestoft station.
