:02:19. > :02:23.inspector's recommendation was then passed on to the Communities

:03:02. > :03:08.Norfolk County Council and Henry Bellingham is the MP for North West

:03:12. > :03:23.I'm pretty sure, yes. You s`id it I'm pretty sure, yes. You said it
:03:24. > :03:30.would cripple the council. Xes. The fact was that our predecessor had
:03:31. > :03:35.made no provision for finding the money for cancellation. It would
:03:36. > :03:41.have had to be paid within 30 working days. It would have been
:03:42. > :03:50.disastrous. Since then, we have made provisions for that money. But you
:03:51. > :03:54.haven't got all of it. We found 18 million of it and we are going to
:03:55. > :04:04.find another 11 million and stop we will have the entire financhal year
:04:05. > :04:05.for that. Henry Bellingham, your campaign has helped to cripple the

:04:10. > :04:13.council. I would not say that. It council. I would not say that. It
:04:14. > :04:17.was not value for money. The key thing to think about is that the

:04:37. > :04:43.more money. You said you will try to get money to help them pay for the
:04:44. > :04:49.shortfall. What will you do? I will work with my colleagues in the
:04:50. > :04:52.region because we are going to go to the government, working with the
:04:53. > :04:56.council, and make it very clear that there must be ways in which the
:04:57. > :05:03.government can at least look at assisting. We don't know thd penalty
:05:04. > :05:06.will have to be paid. I would hesitate about forcing the council
:05:07. > :05:17.to have to pay it. We will `sk the to have to pay it. We will ask the
:05:18. > :05:26.government that it could perhaps be capitalised into a loan. But they
:05:27. > :05:28.have no money. We can tell the government of this is a penalty,
:05:29. > :05:35.government of this is a pen`lty which is a huge burden on Norfolk's
:05:36. > :05:41.council taxpayers. It is a ?1.4 billion budget the council has. We
:05:42. > :05:50.can work with the government to mitigate. George Nobbs, you shook
:05:51. > :05:57.your head. He doesn't accept reality. He says the government will
:05:58. > :06:02.find the money. I don't know what dreamworld he is in. Which
:06:03. > :06:06.dreamworld are you in? It was dreamworld he is in. Which
:06:07. > :06:13.dreamworld are you in? It was signed under duress. If they're serious
:06:14. > :06:18.about getting more contracts from central government, will they
:06:19. > :06:24.enforce this penalty? The government will look at mitigating it. If he

:09:49. > :09:53.Street, upgrading power lines in Essex and improving the bottleneck
:09:54. > :10:04.at Ely Junction. It will also be upgrading signals and renewing
:10:05. > :10:08.ageing infrastructure. Today, Network Rail showed off a new
:10:09. > :10:15.stretch of track, a tunnel under London. An effort to improvd rail
:10:16. > :10:18.travel in and out of our region. It is not our flash of lightning that
:10:19. > :10:23.will make everything instantly better. It is about incremental
:10:24. > :10:30.improvements making journeys more reliable and fast. The ?2.2 billion
:10:31. > :10:36.investment is not new money but it is now starting to be spent. The
:10:37. > :10:39.ease pressure on the Norwich to London mainline, power lines will be
:10:40. > :10:44.overhauled and a major junction near Liverpool Street rebuilt. To really
:10:45. > :10:45.congestion on the West Anglia Liverpool Street rebuilt. To really
:10:46. > :10:49.congestion on the West Anglha line, congestion on the West Anglia line,
:10:50. > :10:53.Ely Junction will also be rdbuilt. And the cross`country routes will
:10:54. > :10:59.continue to be upgraded, taking freight off the roads. But what does
:11:00. > :11:06.this mean for passengers? They won't notice much of a difference for a
:11:07. > :11:08.while but they might notice when they are transferred to a bts at the
:11:09. > :11:13.they are transferred to a bus at the weekends. It is unavoidable. Trains
:11:14. > :11:18.should become faster and more reliable each year. New tracks will
:11:19. > :11:25.replace all tracks. Some level crossings will be closed and
:11:26. > :11:29.platforms extended. East Anglia probably needs a greater proportion
:11:30. > :11:33.of investment in order to bring it up with another part of the country.
:11:34. > :11:37.And so far I think we are sdeing And so far I think we are seeing
:11:38. > :11:42.that the North and inevitably the south`east have been prioritised.
:11:43. > :11:45.Previously, we got less per capita than other parts of the country. We

:11:48. > :11:47.than other parts of the country. We are now getting our fair sh`re. I
:11:48. > :11:52.are now getting our fair share. I want to see even more to make up for
:11:53. > :11:54.lost ground. We are spending more on railways than any time sincd the
:11:55. > :11:58.railways than any time since the Victorian times. Network Rahl says

:12:13. > :12:17.have to be completed within the next five years.
:12:18. > :12:23.Let's talk now to Jonathan Denby from Greater Anglia. We heard we are
:12:24. > :12:28.still not getting our fair share. Why are we always the poor
:12:29. > :12:34.relation? This is the best settlement we have had for lany
:12:35. > :12:39.years and that is good news. We now have a much greater coalition of
:12:40. > :12:44.stakeholders in the region getting greater investment here. Thdre are
:12:45. > :12:48.lots of important schemes in the next five years and of the work we
:12:49. > :12:50.have put together for the whole of the region in the past few xears,
:12:51. > :12:56.the region in the past few years, are improvements and priorities,
:12:57. > :13:03.will get more investment in years to come. Are these improvements we
:13:04. > :13:08.heard about today, will thex come. Are these improvements we
:13:09. > :13:10.heard about today, will they result heard about today, will they result
:13:11. > :13:18.in Norwich in 90 minutes, Ipswich in 60? These are small steps towards
:13:19. > :13:25.it. Incremental steps. They will move us closer to those aspirations.
:13:26. > :13:28.When we report towards the dnd of the year, we will have a clear and
:13:29. > :13:33.the year, we will have a cldar and detailed cost of improvements that
:13:34. > :13:39.we need to improve to get a bigger step change but hopefully some of
:13:40. > :13:47.the work by Network Rail will take us closer to those goals. What
:13:48. > :13:50.difference will passengers notice? Ticket prices keep going up and they
:13:51. > :13:56.don't always feel they are getting value for money. It is our job to

:14:01. > :14:03.make sure they do feel they are getting value for money. They will
