Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, pursuant to AQW 19483/17-22, to detail her contractually committed and pre-committed spending commitments for 2021/22.


Answer:
The table below provides a breakdown of the £520m inescapable and pre-committed spending commitments for 2021-22, in line with the categorisation used for budget information gathering purposes. Over 71% of the capital budget allocation for my Department falls into these categories. There may be further contractually committed spend within the remainder of the budget at this stage, however this cannot be quantified.
