Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the OBR forecasts published in the answer of 29 June 2026, to Question 11413, on Council tax, table 4.8: CDEL spending by departments, if she will publish an updated budget line for the MHCLG CDDEL spending in each year in cash terms and real annual growth.

As set out in the answer of 14 July 2026 to Question 14926, departments have been asked to contribute 1p in every £1 of their capital budgets to fund this Government’s Defence Investment Plan.

Revisions to departmental capital budgets will be reported to Parliament through the usual estimates process.

The Local Government DEL budget does not include capital expenditure and therefore no Local Government CDEL allocation is held.
