The Infrastructure 
Forum

The Infrastructure Forum bring together the key players in infrastructure, whether investors, operators, contractors, economic regulators or professional advisors. It has become the meeting place for confidential and constructive discussion about ways to promote the development of infrastructure networks in the UK and to broaden the range of options available to policymakers and regulators.

The expertise of its team, the knowledge and experience of its specialised working groups, and its excellent trusted relationships with public authorities and agencies in the UK and internationally all contribute to its effectiveness.

STRENGTHENING CONSENSUS & CERTAINTY ON INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT

 

THE INFRASTRUCTURE FORUM

The National Infrastructure Commission plays a critical role in the development of the UK’s national infrastructure and has performed admirably under the leadership of Sir John Armitt. In this paper, the Forum's network of operators, investors and professional advisers in the infrastructure sector argues that the government should grant the NIC the status of a statutory corporation, in order to boost its authority and level of independence and its ability to report directly to Parliament. TIF believes this step can significantly enhance predictability, certainty, transparency, and scrutiny of the UK’s infrastructure policies, making decisions more binding and reducing policy churn.
