TRANSPORT Minister Keith Brown has welcomed the Commons Transport Select Committee findings that the UK Government should commit to a fully inclusive high speed rail network.
Mr Brown insists the report is further endorsement for calls to get construction under way in Scotland as soon as work begins on the line in England.
The report echoes the calls of the Scottish Government for the line to be built from the north and the south concurrently to ensure both ends of the UK are included.
