The Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body and Restoration and Renewal Delivery Authority were established in April and May 2020 respectively. From their establishment until the end of March 2022, those bodies spent £216.5m on the Restoration and Renewal Programme (this includes £5m of costs in April 2020 before the Delivery Authority was formally incorporated). A breakdown is provided in the table below.<\/p>

The total forecast spend for the current financial year (2022-23) is £80m for the Delivery Authority and £7m for the Sponsor Body/R&R Client Team (the Client Team having taken over the sponsor function for the programme from the Sponsor Body on 1 January 2023).<\/p>

Both the Sponsor Body and Delivery Authority routinely published information on costs, for instance in quarterly reports, annual reports, and memoranda provided to the Parliamentary Works Estimates Commission. This transparency will continue under the R&R Client Team.<\/p>

UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) publishes its doping test figures on a quarterly basis to preserve the integrity of the test allocation process and ensure the \u201cno advance notice\u201d testing principle is protected. Therefore, UKAD\u2019s figures for the in- and out-of-competition tests it has carried out since 17 March 2020 are only partially available.<\/p>

<\/p>

Testing figures for Q4 of 2019/20, which covers January-March 2020, have been published on UKAD\u2019s website. According to this report, the domestic and international Anti-Doping Testing Programme carried out 2,512 tests during this period. Testing figures for Q1 of 2020/21, which covers April-June 2020, will be published after the period is complete.<\/p>

<\/p>

Athletes are not required to declare in advance of tests if they, or anyone they are living with, are at higher risk from, or clinically extremely vulnerable to, COVID-19. UKAD has asked athletes and National Governing Bodies to provide this information to help their planning, however does not have plans to make this publicly available.<\/p>

The Department for Transport is working towards developing scenarios using the National Transport Model (NTM), to support investment and policy decision-making in the context of the Roads Investment Strategy 2. The scenarios will test various uncertainties in some of the main drivers of road traffic, to ensure road investment decisions are robust against a range of possible futures.<\/p>

The strategic approach to aspects of traffic does include co-ordination internationally and with the automobile industry, for example about vehicle standards.
