Paul Rowen: Will the Minister give way?
The Government can be very proud of our achievements. We are not saying everything is perfect, but we are delivering. There have been more than 1 billion passenger journeys by rail, more even, as the hon. Member for Epsom and Ewell admitted, than there were before the days of Beeching. Some 3,800 new carriages have entered service since 1999. There is not a slam-door train left on the network. The average age of stock has been reduced from 20 years to 13. Some £7.6 billion has been spent on west coast route modernisation, which has knocked half an hour off the journey between London and Manchester. East coast upgrade improvements are under way or already delivered at King's Cross, Peterborough, Leeds and Grantham. The list goes on and on and—
Mr. Patrick McLoughlin (West Derbyshire) (Con) rose in his place and claimed to move, That the Question be now put.

Question accordingly negatived.
1 Feb 2006 : Column 433
Question, That the proposed words be there added, put forthwith, pursuant to Standing Order No. 31 (Questions on amendments), and agreed to.
Mr. Speaker forthwith declared the main Question, as amended, to be agreed to.
That this House acknowledges the importance of providing a clear strategy of sustained long-term investment and forward planning to address decades of under-investment in the transport system; welcomes the further investment and new strategic framework provided by the subsequent Future of Transport White Paper; recognises the achievements since the 10 Year Plan was published, including the highest number of people using the railways since the 1960s and the delivery of major strategic road schemes, with further schemes either under way or due to start before April 2008; acknowledges that one of the main reasons for the continuing pressure on transport networks is that the United Kingdom is enjoying the longest period of sustained economic growth for more than 200 years; and supports the Government's determination to take the decisions which will be required to meet these pressures and put UK transport on a sustainable footing, including tackling the environmental impacts of transport, trialling road-pricing and building on the improvements in rail performance, as well as planning for long-term transport needs.
