HIGH SPEED RAIL (WEST MIDLANDS - CREWE) BILL: SECOND READING
Notes: The Speaker has not yet considered this Bill for certification.
Relevant Documents: Tenth Report of the Public Accounts Committee of Session 2017-19, High Speed 2 Annual Report and Accounts, HC 454. Michael Fabricant Jeremy Lefroy Sir William Cash That this House, while recognising the increasing need for additional north-south rail line capacity to relieve congestion on the West Coast Main Line south of the Midlands and to improve connectivity between major cities and with London, declines to give the High Speed Rail (West Midlands - Crewe) Bill a Second Reading because (1) there are better ways to address any rail capacity issues north of the Midlands, (2) the line set out in the Bill is routed through unspoiled countryside unnecessarily damaging the environment including wildlife habitats, ancient woodlands and waterways, fails to connect via HS2 Phase 1 with HS1, the Channel Tunnel and the European continent, fails to connect directly through HS2 Phase 1 with potential airport hubs for London and the south-east of England, and fails to connect directly to existing major mainline stations and the existing rail network, (3) the Bill provides inadequate compensation to those blighted by the route and those whose property is subject to compulsory purchase orders, (4) the Bill fails to provide for sufficient public transport to disperse HS2 passengers disembarking at London Euston, and (5) the Bill does not implement a more environmentally sympathetic, better integrated, and more cost-effective route, such as the route originally proposed by Arup which would have used existing transport corridors minimising environmental damage and reducing costs by around £10 billion, and which would have connected directly with HS1 and the continent, London Heathrow Airport, Birmingham International Airport, and major conurbations.
HIGH SPEED RAIL (WEST MIDLANDS - CREWE) BILL: MONEY Mel Stride That, for the purposes of any Act resulting from the High Speed Rail (West Midlands - Crewe) Bill, it is expedient to authorise the payment out of money provided by Parliament of: (1) any expenditure incurred by the Secretary of State in consequence of the Act, and (2) any increase attributable to the Act in the sums payable out of money so provided under any other enactment.
Notes: Queen's Recommendation signified.
