M4 Upgrading: South Wales

"My right hon. Friend is making an important speech about the importance of the M4 to the south Wales economy, and his point about the Welsh Government is well taken. Is the A55 in north Wales not also an example of an issue on which promises have been made consistently? …..."

M4 Upgrading: South Wales

"I express my support as a north Wales MP. Quite often in Wales, we have the argument that all the funding goes down south, but the view in north Wales is that we will not see major updates to the A55 until this project is off the ground. The view …..."

Cities and Local Government Devolution Bill [Lords]

"Surely that argument makes little sense? My daughter, for example, is currently saving up to buy a laptop computer. She will have to pay VAT. She is 13; she will have no votes. Does the right hon. Gentleman propose a 13-year-old should have a vote on the VAT issue?..."

Written Question
Emergencies: Planning
Thursday 23rd October 2014

Asked by: Guto Bebb (Independent - Aberconwy)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the recent National Contingency Plan exercise in Conwy Morfa.

Answered by John Hayes

The National Contingency Plan exercise in Conwy Morfa on 10 and 11 September 2014 was coordinated by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) and involved 39 organisations and 180 participants.

The MCA, along with a number of other organisations, will assess how the exercise tested the response to an oil spill incident of national significance.

A formal report on the exercise, detailing lessons identified and recommendations, will be published within the first quarter of 2015. This timescale is necessary because of the complexity and scale of the exercise.

England-Wales Transport Links

"I appreciate the hon. Gentleman’s comments on north Wales, south Wales and the exclusion of mid-Wales, but does he recognise, for example, the Conwy Valley railway line in my constituency? The line links to Meirionnydd, which I define as being in mid-Wales. One of the key issues for the Conwy …..."

Oral Answers to Questions

Coastguard Modernisation

"I warmly congratulate the Secretary of State on his announcement today, which is most welcome in relation to Holyhead. May I also pay tribute to the hon. Member for Ynys Môn (Albert Owen) for his leadership of what was a strong cross-party campaign? Does the Secretary of State agree that …..."

High-speed Rail

"On that point, I travel down by train from Chester or Runcorn simply because the North Wales Coast Railway line is so poor. How does the hon. Lady think that the economic case for north Wales will be improved by making the journey time to Manchester 1 hour 10 minutes …..."

Rail Investment

"As a north Wales MP, my question concerns the extent to which there should be a recognition of the economic impact of railway investment, and to what degree the investment should take regional variations into account. My understanding is that investment in railways does not, for example, take into account …..."

Rail Investment
