Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on the adequacy of funding for transport infrastructure in Scotland.

The Secretary of State has regular discussions with Cabinet colleagues on funding for transport infrastructure in Scotland, as well as with the Scottish Government and other stakeholders.

In addition to the block grant, the UK Government provides funding for Scottish transport schemes through a variety of sources, including the recently announced Levelling Up Fund, and has announced further funding in our Network North plan and our response to Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill’s Union Connectivity Review.
