Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 January 2025

Debate

Great British Energy Bill

Contribution

Indeed, it was announced that, from that date, the former UK Infrastructure Bank—UKIB—would operate as the NWF. The Chancellor said that it would have a total capitalisation of £27.8 billion to catalyse investment that would not otherwise have taken place. To set up other bodies operating in separate silos is obviously not the best way to provide the taxpayer with a good return on investment or to ensure economic growth.
