Question to the Rt Hon Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Lucy Rigby KC MP

Yesterday I spoke in the Chamber and raised an important issue around cross-border connectivity with the Rt Hon Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Lucy Rigby KC MP.

As she acknowledged, this is a long-standing issue, and one that I will continue to press hard on because I regularly hear from constituents about the real and ongoing impact it is having on daily lives.

I will keep pressing this issue so that the £445 million investment delivers real benefits for people in the Forest of Dean.
