Question
What discussions has the Welsh Government had with the UK Government about the fact that there was no HS2 consequential for Wales in the latest UK budget?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Welsh Language
The UK Budget on 30 October was the first stage in a two-stage budgetary process. We remain in discussions with the UK Government on the issue of rail funding and investment. This will form part of the UK Government’s considerations for the second phase of the Spending Review, which will be announced in the spring.
