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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, how much and what proportion of the funding for the Oxford-Cambridge Arc project will be supplied by his Department.

Government recognises the Oxford-Cambridge Arc as a globally renowned hub of innovation, with businesses and universities that are leading the way in life sciences, space and green technologies

In October 2021, the Government completed a 12-week public consultation gathering views to shape a vision for the Spatial Framework. We continue to work through next steps and will provide more information in due course.
