The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will publish what the new asset efficiency target will be broken down by department.

Answered by James Murray

At Budget 2025, the Government announced a £1 billion asset efficiency target for departments to meet by 2030. The target will be met through a combination of asset disposals and new income generated from assets.

The Government announced a Strategic Asset Review in support of this target, which will be conducted ahead of the next spending review.
