Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the need for a coordination service to assist new international investors; and what steps they are taking to deliver this.

The Government has established the service described. It is the Office for Investment (OfI), a joint unit of HM Treasury, the Department for Business and Trade, and Number 10 Downing Street. The OfI was launched in its current form in June 2025, with a remit to source and secure transformational investment that drives economic growth, job creation, and increased productivity across the UK. The OfI operates as a central government function, working across departments and with external partners to attract and land high-value, strategic investments into the UK.
