By the same token, HM Treasury and IPA do not have data on what proportion of funding for projects in the Devolved Administrations comes from central government and DAs’ own capital budgets. However, HM Treasury and IPA do publish <em>aggregate</em> capital spending allocations for departments and the Devolved Administrations, as well as more granular detail on infrastructure investment, for example in the recent <em>Interim Response to the National Infrastructure Assessment</em> at Budget 2018 and the <em>National Infrastructure and Construction Pipeline</em> in November 2018.</p><p> </p><p>Aggregate capital spending allocations to departments and the Devolved Administrations in past years are published in <em>Public Expenditure Statistical Analyses 2018</em> (p.26). Further regional breakdowns of capital spending by economic category, including for the Devolved Administrations, are published in Chapter 9 of the same document.</p><p> </p><p>Aggregate capital spending allocations for future years to 2020-21 are published in the <em>Budget 2018</em> document (p.23). The Government will set capital budgets beyond 2020-21 at the Spending Review. The Government will also publish further, more detailed information on infrastructure in the full response to the National Infrastructure Assessment later this year.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss grouped question UIN 213975 214523 214524 question first answered 06/02/2019 13:49:57 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
