Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what his Department's expected timeline is for selling all land previously acquired for Phase 2B of HS2; and who has oversight of this.

Any land and property that is no longer required will be sold, and a programme is being developed to do this. It will take some time to develop this programme, and we will set out further detail on these next steps, and will engage in full with those communities who are affected as we do.
