In Parliament
The Parliamentary Select Committees for the High Speed Rail (HS2) Bill provided individuals and bodies directly and specially affected by the Bill the opportunity to object to specific provisions and seek amendments.
Warwickshire County Council and North Warwickshire Borough Council put their cases to Parliament in a bid to secure a better deal for communities from HS2. The two local authorities appeared before the HS2 Select Committee between 27 and 28 October seeking measures to mitigate the impact of the high speed railway. The county council and borough council submitted evidence to MP’s on a range of issues contained in their petitions, which are available on the Parliamentary website.
