Asked by:
Andrew Bowie (Conservative)

Answer

The UK Government fully recognises the social and economic importance of improving connectivity across all parts of the UK. Where there are areas of cross-border interest, my ministerial colleagues and I remain keen to collaborate with our Scottish counterparts and the Department is currently contributing to discussions on the emerging transport proposals in the proposed Borderlands Growth Deal as well as ongoing work in relation to HS2 and the strategic road network.
