[holding answer 23 February 2009]: The following table details the funding allocated to the (a) Waste and Resources Action programme, (b) Carbon Trust, (c) Energy Saving Trust, (d) National Industrial Symbiosis programme, (e) Envirowise and (f) Nuclear Decommissioning Authority in each year since 1997.
This Department funds the Carbon Trust (CT), the Energy Saving Trust (EST) and the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA).
The CT was established in 2001 and in the past received funding from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR). CT figures do not include funding from the devolved administrations.
Previously, the EST received funding from DEFRA, the Department for Transport, BERR (formerly the Department of Trade and Industry) and the Scottish Administration.
The NDA became operational on 1 April 2005. It is funded by a combination of Government funding and commercial income. The funding for the NDA for 2008-09 is expected to be around £3 billion, of which £1.5 billion is Government funding. The total funding for the NDA for the three year spending period to 2010-11 is expected to be around £8 billion, of which £5 billion is Government funding.
The National Industrial Symbiosis programme (NISP) is funded by DEFRA as is Envirowise (which until 2006-07 was jointly funded with BERR) and the Waste and Resources Action programme (WRAP). The allocations for NISP, Envirowise and WRAP do not include funding from the Devolved Administrations. The NISP and WRAP programmes were not operational in the years for which figures have not been provided.
Funding in 2009-10 for some delivery bodies has yet to be confirmed while the funding for all bodies for years beyond that has yet to be determined.
