In July 2019, the Chair of the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC), Sir John Armitt, spoke to members of Resilience First on his views on national resilience and progress with a resilience study requested by The Treasury.
The first part of this study was a scoping phase that concluded in September 2019 with the publication of the Resilience Study scoping report.
The NIC will publish its final report and recommendations in Spring 2020. The Chair has kindly agreed to return to speak to members on the report’s findings and his thoughts on the way forward as major infrastructure projects gather pace.
Kindly hosted by Atkins
