Her Majesty’s Treasury permanently established the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC) in January 2017. This expert group which offers advice on the UK’s strategic infrastructure needs was originally set up as an interim group in October 2015.

The Chancellor’s statement concerning the establishment of the NIC is available on gov.uk[1]
