Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what guidance his Department has provided to local authorities on publishing their investment plans since local spending plans for the UK Shared Prosperity Fund were approved.

My department has required local authorities to publish information regarding the delivery of the UKSPF in its area, by publishing a summary of the investment plan and activities being funded in the area. Where delivery in Northern Ireland is led by UK Government, we have published the investment plan.
