Prime Minister: Mission Boards

Asked by Mr Richard HoldenConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 11 November 2024UIN 12275

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the Prime Minister’s speech of 6 July 2024 and to the Cabinet Office guidance entitled List of Cabinet Committees and their membership, updated on 21 October 2024, for what reason the Prime Minister is not chairing the Mission Delivery Boards.

Answered by Ellie Reeves

Missions are a priority for the Government. The Prime Minister has established a Cabinet committee structure, including mission boards, to support his policy agenda. Secretaries of State chair mission boards to drive delivery of mission outcomes, supported by the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, who is responsible for driving mission delivery across government, ensuring mission-led government is at the heart of the administration.
