Asked by:
Dr Jeevun Sandher (Labour)

The National Wealth Fund was announced by the Chancellor on 9 July and further details will be set out at the International Investment Summit on 14 October. In the meantime, projects can approach UKIB who assesses each opportunity on a deal-by-deal basis and can be contacted by making an enquiry on the UKIB website.

Great British Energy will be an operationally independent company, overseen by a Board, rather than Ministers, benefitting from industry-leading expertise and experience across its remit. The Bill establishing Great British Energy is currently going through Parliament.
