Can I thank the Member for his question? It gives me an opportunity to update him and others on how much we are spending on road improvements and pinch points in north Wales. Our list of improvements amounts to £600 million, and it stretches from the far west of north Wales, right across to the border with England—hugely important programmes of work on the A55 that will improve cross-border and cross-community transport, utilising the main artery of north Wales. 

But it must be said that it's not just about roads, rail is vitally important as well in terms of east-west travel. That's why I am hopeful that, at the budget, the UK Government will make a down payment of £215 million, which is roughly per capita what we would have expected to have been spent in north Wales had the UK Government delivered the same amount of investment to the region as it did to other parts of England.
