Written Question
Speed Limits: Rural Areas
Monday 24th November 2025

Asked by: David Taylor (Labour - Hemel Hempstead)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department has made a recent assessment of the adequacy of the national speed limit of 60 mph on unlit single-track rural lanes.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury

The Department has not made an assessment of the adequacy of the national speed limit of 60mph on unlit single-track rural lanes.

On many rural lanes their width and sinuosity lead to speeds that are already far lower than the national limit. Lowering limits does not always result in significantly slower speeds and general compliance would need to be achievable without too heavy a reliance on police enforcement.

Traffic authorities are best placed to decide where lower limits will be effective on the roads for which they are responsible. In doing so, they are asked to consider important factors including the history of collisions, the road function, the composition of road users including vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists, and the geometry and environment of the road.

Written Question
Development Aid: Asylum
Tuesday 18th November 2025

Asked by: David Taylor (Labour - Hemel Hempstead)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether funding saved by reducing the cost of hotel accommodation for asylum seekers in the UK will be given to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office to spend on international aid overseas.

Answered by James Murray - Chief Secretary to the Treasury

At Spring Statement 2025, the government confirmed that ODA budgets across the Spending Review period would be set in cash terms, based on the Office for Budget Responsibility’s spring 2025 forecast of gross national income (GNI). This means the FCDO’s ODA budget will no longer be automatically exposed to the volatility of GNI fluctuations or to ODA spending by other departments, including changes in asylum costs, providing greater predictability.
