Severn Barrage

|
| Ebbw Vale Railway
The real problem is that trains have to pass each other between Cross Keys and Llanhilleth. At present this a single track section so you can only get one train an hour up to Ebbw Vale. |
Rogiet Spur
Veronica believes that it would be a good idea to build a spur off of the M48, between Caldicot and Rogiet, which would then mean Welsh commuters can drive straight to Severn Tunnel Junction and get the train. |

|
| Newport Passport Office
Veronica German has written to Home Office Minister Lynne Featherstone and Welsh Secretary Cheryl Gillan expressing her deep concern regarding the possible closure of the Newport Passport office. |
Aneurin Bevan Health Board
Five years after the government’s endorsement of a new way to deliver health services in the greater Gwent area with more emphasis on delivery in the community, patients are still waiting. |

|
| Anti-Stigma Campaign
Veronica believes that Wales should have its own anti-stigma campaign such as ‘Time to Change’ in England and ‘See Me’ in Scotland. |
