Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of the performance of the Government Major Projects Portfolio.

The government recently created the National Infrastructure and Service Transformation Authority (NISTA) which will have an impactful role in supporting and monitoring major projects on the GMPP.

NISTA conducts regular deliverability assessments of major projects in the Government Major Project Portfolio. Data on major projects, including this deliverability assessment, is published each year in the Annual Report on Major Projects. The 2024/25 Annual Report will be published in due course.

NISTA has already supported the development of the “UK Infrastructure: A 10-Year Strategy” which sets out government's long-term plan for driving more effective delivery of economic, housing and social infrastructure across the country, alongside the vital reforms to planning.
