3.16 The Government will provide further detail on the following potential future measures in March 2012:
• measures to allow extended commitment to defined programmes of work where value for money outweighs funding flexibility requirements, based on the outcome of the collaborative pilots in highways and flood defences;
• adoption of additional measures within regulated sectors as part of the planning for future control cycles to smooth out the stop-start cycle of current regulatory frameworks;
• embedding framework and incentive arrangements that encourage and support cross programme efficiency. This will include the identification of project opportunities for cross programme investment/purchasing of standard assets and the removal of blockers; and
• further measures to ensure that Government departments maintain prioritised lists of forward public sector projects capable of aggregation into a national database.
