Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, with reference to the policy papers entitled Spending Review 2025, published on 30 June 2025, and Budget 2025, published on 28 November 2025, what their Department’s capital Departmental Expenditure Limit (DEL) will be in each year of the Spending Review period; how much capital funding has been allocated to each of their Department’s programmes; and how much and what proportion of the capital DEL allocation remains unallocated in each year.

As detailed at Budget 2025, DCMS has £0.7bn of Capital DEL in each year of the Spending Review. The Department is currently completing its Business Planning process, which will allocate the funding to specific programmes. As such, we cannot yet confirm programme by programme allocations or what remains unallocated in each year.
