The section of the Autumn Statement relating to the National Infrastructure Commission can be found here. It is reproduced in full below.

That investment is only possible because the government is prepared to take the tough decisions to maintain control of current spending.

This Autumn Statement responds to the challenge of building on that strength, while also heeding the warnings in the OBR’s figures, as we begin writing this new chapter in our country’s history.

We recognise that many organisations across the UK which are in receipt of EU funding, or expect to start receiving funding, want reassurance about the flow of funding they will receive. That is why we are confirming that structural and investment funds projects signed before the Autumn Statement and Horizon research funding granted before we leave the EU will be guaranteed by the Treasury after we leave. Thousands of British organisations have received guarantees over EU funding from the Chancellor.

The government has also introduced 15 hours a week of free childcare for all 3 and 4 year olds, and we will double that for working families from September.
