To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to trial insurance-backed alliancing for Government construction projects in the light of the successes achieved by the use of this method of construction procurement in reducing construction project costs.

The Government is aware that there have been some projects on which Insurance Backed Alliancing has been successfully used and continues to monitor the use of this in the UK. The policy of the Government remains that construction clients can choose to use Insurance Backed Alliancing if the project is suitable, and this is agreed with the supply chain. The Government has no current plans to trial this mechanism more widely.
