Establish an infrastructure delivery and reform function

What this means

• The government has committed to setting up a new infrastructure delivery and reform function inside the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform.[source]
• The goal is to strengthen central oversight of major infrastructure projects, remove barriers that slow them down, and speed up delivery across the state.[source]
• This commitment was first stated on 23 January 2025 as part of the Programme for Government and is currently listed as in progress with no fixed deadline set.[source]
• Minister Jack Chambers, who leads the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform, is the officeholder responsible for delivering this commitment.[source]
• For accountability, this function matters because it places responsibility for unblocking slow or stalled public infrastructure projects at the centre of government spending oversight.[source]
