  Whether he plans to approve a southern rail link to Heathrow Airport.

• Litter Strategy — [Geraint Davies in the Chair] 18 Jul 2018

  Does the Minister have a strong view as to the division of responsibility between Highways England and local councils? Local councils are ultimately responsible to their electorate. Ideally, I think Highways England should be responsible, but I wonder who is marking the organisations’ homework and what mechanisms we have for checking they are doing their job properly.
