[Andrew Selous (South West Bedfordshire) (Con)]

6. What steps he has taken to increase infrastructure investment.

[The Chief Secretary to the Treasury (Danny Alexander)]

Average annual investment in infrastructure has risen to £45 billion per year under this Government, compared with just £41 billion during the last five years of the previous Government. Last week we published an updated national infrastructure plan that set out our long-term plan for meeting those ambitions for the next decade and beyond. That included a pipeline of £375 billion-worth of projects, building on the announcements we made in June.
