During a recent debate in the House Of Commons Scott Mann, MP for North Cornwall, once again addressed the issue of reliable rail links to North Cornwall, and Cornwall in general. Speaking in the Commons Scott said:
"During the great storms in the west country in early 2014, we found our main line route to Cornwall floating in the sea. The Peninsular Rail Task Force put together three proposals, including the Okehampton link. Have any conclusions been reached? It would add huge benefits to our economic potential in North Cornwall."
