Text
We are determined to improve the process to ensure that more of our capital projects are delivered on time and on budget. Two work streams are under way that will help to shape decision-making on the best way forward. First, TEO and Strategic Investment Board (SIB) officials are continuing to address the recommendations from the recent review of SIB, including the provision of greater strategic support to the Executive. Secondly, the enabling action plan associated with the draft investment strategy is a key element of tackling the underlying issues that contribute to delays in infrastructure delivery. There are a number of actions, including the development of an infrastructure needs assessment. We will use the findings from those work streams as part of our considerations on the best way forward. Ultimately, obviously, decisions will be a matter for the Executive.
