Rt Hon Dame Cheryl Gillan MP

House of Commons, LONDON, SW1A 0AA

Date: 4 June 2020

 HAVE YOU BEEN AFFECTED BY THE HS2 PROPERTY COMPENSATION SCHEME?

 Rt Hon Dame Cheryl Gillan MP asks for your feedback on the High Speed Two (HS2) land and property acquisition, compensation and engagement programme.

 On 11 February, the Prime Minister gave his commitment to proceed with all phases of HS2 in the House of Commons. The new HS2 Minister, Andrew Stephenson MP, has now written to MPs along the line of route for HS2 inviting comments on how HS2 Ltd support and engage with people affected by the programme.

 Dame Cheryl said “HS2 Ltd’s compensation and mitigation packages have been extremely poor. Their engagement has historically been awful and continue to require improvement. I know many of my constituent have suffered terribly at the hands of HS2, causing them undue stress. Although, another submission is the last thing on their minds, especially under this pandemic, I am keen to hear from you and pass your comments on to the minister and the Department for Transport.”

 If you would like to make a submission to Dame Cheryl, or require further information, please contact her on cheryl.gillan.mp@parliament.uk Deadline for submission is Wednesday 10 June, 5pm.
