<p>HM Treasury does not centrally hold information on all individual capital projects
approved in (a) Northern Ireland, (b) Wales and (c) Scotland.</p><p> </p><p>Capital
projects in the Devolved Administrations are not funded through a single mechanism,
nor is there a single decision-making body. In devolved policy areas funding comes
from either i) central government, as in the case of the Belfast City Regional Deal
at Autumn Budget 2018; or ii) from Devolved Administrations’ own capital budgets,
which are set per the Barnett formula. Projects in reserved policy areas, such as
Defence, are funded through central government. Because there is no central funding
source or decision-making body, we do not hold a complete record of individual capital
projects approved in (a) Northern Ireland, (b) Wales and (c) Scotland in (i) 2017,
(ii) 2018 and (iii) 2019.</p>
