Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much money she has committed to the (a) Safety National Programme and (b) Small Schemes National Programme elements RIS3.

RIS3 included for the first time a set of four National Programmes, which are a new way for National Highways to deliver defined outputs that support RIS3 objectives, where these are not funded in other programmes. Details of the funding for each National Programme will be confirmed in National Highways’ Delivery Plan for 2026-31, which is expected to be published in the summer.
