Question to the Wales Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, 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.
The Wales Office Capital Departmental Expenditure Limit (DEL) over the Spending Review is shown below:
Financial Year | £Million |
2025/26 | 0.975* |
2026/27 | 0.030 |
2027/28 | 0.030 |
2028/29 | 0.030 |
The Department does not have capital programmes. The capital DEL is to cover the purchase of office equipment.
*The 2025-26 Capital DEL includes £0.945m for a change in valuation of the Departments building leases resulting from a technical accounting adjustment to comply with HM Treasury Consolidated Budgeting guidance.
