	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/07/2017 answer text <p>HM Treasury’s Country and Regional Analysis (CRA) and the Infrastructure and Projects Authority’s National Infrastructure and Construction Pipeline (NICP) are not directly comparable.</p><p> </p><p>The CRA provides comprehensive historical analysis of public sector spend on transport by region up to 2016, outlining spend on maintaining and administering the transport network, such as maintaining the local road network. It also includes the actual investment to build new infrastructure, such as investment in a new bypass. CRA data are National Statistics.</p><p> </p><p>The NICP differs from the CRA in that it is a forward-looking view focused on planned projects. It is intended to provide industry with a strategic view of the planned investment in projects to deliver new infrastructure and construction projects across the public and private sectors, including the transport network, up to 2021 and beyond. The IPA makes clear that the NICP is based on non-comprehensive, unaudited administrative data and should not be considered as National Statistics or Official Statistics.</p><p> </p><p>It is very difficult to offer a meaningful regional breakdown of infrastructure investment based on the NICP. This is because only around 40% of the value of projects in the pipeline to 2020/21 has been allocated to individual English regions.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 26/07/2017 11:02:15 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
