To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment has he made of the capacity of the rail supply chain to deliver (a) Network Rail’s Control Period 6 enhancements pipeline, (b) his Department's market led proposals for rail and (c) the construction of HS2.

The Rail Sector Deal, published in December 2018, set out a new approach to partnership working between the Government and the rail supply sector. We are working closely together to ensure both that the sector has appropriate visibility of future work and that the sector is investing sufficiently in people, processes and skills that will be needed to deliver this additional investment. The Long Term Deployment Plan for the Digital Railway was published earlier this year and on 16 October we published the Rail Network Enhancements Pipeline.
