Context
Dorset has a limited rail frequency with trains taking almost three hours to reach London.
Question
Will my right hon Friend assure me of the Government's commitment to vital rail infrastructure funding for Dorset and the surrounding counties, given that we have a three-hourly rail frequency in our county and it takes us almost three hours to get to London?
Answer from The Secretary of State for Defence Penny Mordaunt
I pay tribute to my hon Friend for his election and, as the whole House is aware, for going above and beyond the call of duty in ensuring that his constituents could use train services during the recent strikes. As I say, we are investing an additional £100 billion in infrastructure, and we are seeking to ensure that we prioritise the right projects, taking a whole-network and whole-life-value approach. His representations have been well made, and they are being listened to.
