1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales

You know, they have a brass neck, they really do. Selective memory as well. When Rishi Sunak promised that £1 billion for electrification of the main line, there was no business case behind it. He hadn't even informed the Department for Transport. The reason that he and others in the room were grinning so much was because he knew it was a great big joke—a joke at our expense in north Wales.
Now, you mentioned that the problem with bus transport under this deregulated system that we have is minute. Thirty per cent, I heard last week, 30 per cent of job offers in north Wales to young people are rejected because of a lack of bus services to get them to and from work. That is not a minute problem. That is a problem that we will seek to address through re-regulation, making sure that networks suit passenger needs.
And in terms of network north Wales, first of all, that £13 million is in addition to the money that we're already spending, such as the £800 million introducing brand-new trains. It's important to note that on the north Wales main line 87 per cent of trains are now brand new. Every single train on the Wrexham to Liverpool line is brand new. That's as a result of Welsh Labour investing £800 million in the Welsh railways. Now, I'm looking forward to next week's comprehensive spending review, because we've made the strongest possible case for the delivery of the transport commission's recommendations in south Wales and in north Wales, and those component parts in north Wales are the bedrock of metro infrastructure services. They deal with infrastructure constraints at Chester and Padeswood, and the need to introduce better safety measures along the north Wales main line.
But you ask: will people see benefits? Let me just tell you what benefits they're going to be seeing across north Wales in the next 18 months that have already been planned, that are part of our funded process of upgrading public transport: new and improved services, 50 per cent more services across the north Wales main line, direct into Liverpool. We're going to see new Fflecsi services; we're going to see new TrawsCymru services; we're going to see a doubling of services between the great cities of Wrexham and Chester. And we are also going to see more work being done on the Wrexham to Liverpool line, to make sure that that is the spine of metro services across north Wales in the coming years. We deliver; you just offer empty promises.
