I'm one of the authors of this important new report on Great British Railways (I've mainly focused on the regulation, accountability and HMT issues - of course!).
Read our FGF takeaways from the Chancellor’s #SpringStatement, her forthcoming 2026 Mais Lecture and the government's autumn Budget ⬇️⬇️⬇️

📉 Do the UK’s fiscal rules need to change? 📉
Today we’re publishing our evidence to the Lords Economic Committee, which sets out several ways to improve the current approach.

At the Lords Industry & Regulators Committee FGF's @danrcorry.bsky.social explained his environmental regulation review for Defra, what it tells us about regulation & how the regulatory system must focus on outcomes & take a more sensible approach to risk

These changes are something we at FGF have argued are necessary (but not sufficient) to see investment spread right across the UK as part of the govt's growth agenda
Our Chief Economist @danrcorry.bsky.social set out the arguments back in December: www.futuregovernanceforum.co.uk/resource/cha...
Good to be at the @futuregovforum.bsky.social lecture by @yeowell.bsky.social . Lots of important themes and ideas
Now that the revised Green Book is here, how’s it looking? Dan has written for @civilserviceworld.bsky.social and argues it is an encouraging start.
But it will still be *political will* more than anything that determines whether investment materialises: www.civilserviceworld.com/news/article...
There's been a lot going on of late, so you'd be forgiven for missing the fact that earlier this month the Treasury issued an updated version of its 'Green Book' - which could have a significant impact on how public money is invested beyond London and the South East

A new FGF report by our Chief Economist, @danrcorry.bsky.social has called on government to change the way that its Green Book is used if it wants to increase public investment in areas outside of the South East

🚂The govt’s plan to renationalise the rail is ambitious and popular – but is changing ownership enough of a fix?
Today, FGF publishes a new paper recommending how govt can set up Great British Railways with a clear purpose, strong institutional foundations and meaningful autonomy.
