Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Heidi Alexander and Rebecca Paul

Thursday 16th July 2026 Commons Chamber

[Heidi Alexander]

My hon. Friend will know that we are spending £280 million on improving station accessibility during this spending review. I will seek to find new opportunities to fund further work on stations as part of future spending discussions, and I expect the new integrated leadership of GBR to work closely with local councils, mayors and parliamentarians to maximise future opportunities.

[Rebecca Paul (Reigate) (Con)]

The Secretary of State will know that e-bikes do not require insurance, but we are seeing some pedestrians suffer catastrophic injuries due to the additional weight of these bikes compared with a normal bike. Is she giving any consideration to reviewing the rules on this issue?
