| 30 Jun 2025 | Public Accounts Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 886) “Do you think that will help to address the imbalance that exists between the public and private sectors? Without putting too fine a point on it, do we think it is going to go far enough?” | 36 |
| 30 Jun 2025 | Public Accounts Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 886) “I want to ask about staffing in local authorities. We recognise that there are staffing challenges for planning departments; what is the Department doing to tackle the root causes of those challenges?” | 32 |

| 26 Jun 2025 | Public Accounts Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 642) “You said it is early days. What options and actions would be open to you, if you came to the conclusion that you did not have sufficient independence to fulfil the role that you are there to do?” | 38 |

| 26 Jun 2025 | Public Accounts Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 642) “When there are projects that complement each other or are in a similar area but are in different Government Departments, how do you make sure they do actually complement each other and are providing value for money? Presumably, they will have different teams working on them.” | 46 |
| 26 Jun 2025 | Public Accounts Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 642) “It sounds quite ad hoc.” | 5 |
