Pursuant to the Answer of 30 March 2026 to Question 122220 on DfT Operator, what was the cost to the public purse of establishing the new sponsorship model and team; how many staff are employed in that team; from which directorates those staff have been drawn; and what the team's annual budget is.

There has been no additional cost to the public purse in establishing the new DFTO sponsorship model and team. The team was formed by redeploying existing staff. This approach ensured that existing expertise and institutional knowledge were retained. Day‑to‑day engagement with DFTO on specific policy and delivery matters is led by relevant policy teams across the Department, which act as clients. This is brought together through a small central sponsorship team of three full‑time staff, which provides overall coordination and oversight.

When the planned Supply Chain Centre will become operational; what its initial remit will be; and what assessment he has made of the potential impact of that centre on mitigating domestic supply chain vulnerabilities.

The government announced its intention to set up a Supply Chain Centre as part of the Trade and Industrial Strategies. The Centre is already operational, with its formal launch expected to take place later in the year. The Centre’s remit will be to lead work across government, working with business, to strengthen the resilience of supply chains critical to UK security and prosperity, including those linked to the Industrial Strategy, through data‑driven reviews. The Centre will take a more strategic, assertive and data‑led approach to identifying vulnerabilities and improving readiness for potential disruptions.
