To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department plans to fully fund the South West Resilience Programme.
Department officials meet with their counterparts from Network Rail on a weekly basis to discuss the progress of the South West Rail Resilience Programme.

The following investment has been provided for the Programme via the Rail Network Enhancement Pipeline:
- Development funding - £17.2m
- Phase 1 & 2 (Dawlish sea wall) - £85.3m
- Phase 3 (Parsons Tunnel rock fall shelter) - £37.44m
Phase 4 (cliff protection measures between tunnels) will be submitted for investment approval in Autumn 2021. Phase 5 (Parsons Tunnel to Teignmouth) is at an earlier development stage and is currently the subject of an optioneering exercise being undertaken by Network Rail.
