00:00 Minister, can you provide an update on the speed of the Portadown to Derry rail line?
00:04 Yes, in terms of a previous debate, I think it's around 200km/h, so it is a high-speed
00:12 rail link between Portadown to Derry. It's part of the All-Island strategic rail review.
00:16 It's an ambitious plan. It gives connectivity. It tackles climate change and promotes public
00:25 transport. These projects are medium to long-term, but they are important. It's crucial that those
00:32 projects include tackling regional imbalance and correcting the mistakes of the past.
