Tabled on 04/10/2023 | For debate on 11/10/2023To propose that the Senedd:
1. Believes that HS2 is an England-only project.
2. Regrets the UK Government’s refusal to provide the full consequential funding Wales should receive as a result of HS2.
3. Equally regrets the UK Labour Party’s refusal to agree that Wales should be provided with the full consequential funding.
4. Calls on the UK Government to right this wrong, and immediately provide the funding Wales is due, so that we can invest in infrastructure projects that this Senedd wishes to be prioritised, including the electrification of all railway lines in Wales.
