Labour — Leeds West and Pudsey

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2025

Debate

Economic Growth: Congleton

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for her question. She is a proud supporter of everything in the Congleton constituency. This Government are committed to regional growth, with growth in all parts of the United Kingdom. That is why the Treasury has reformed the Green Book, looking at the value for money of different projects. It is also why, in Cheshire East, where my hon. Friend’s constituency is, we have put £47 million into local transport grant funding.
