Localism Bill

My Lords, perhaps I, too, may ask a question about the provision of infrastructure on an ““ongoing”” basis. I entirely sympathise with the search for elegance, as my noble friend put it. My question is whether providing infrastructure on an ongoing basis means maintaining it. If that was what was meant, these lines could simply read ““providing and maintaining infrastructure””. Presumably, therefore, it means something else. Does it mean something else excluding maintenance or something else and maintenance? Perhaps the Minister can aid the Committee in the interpretation of the provision.
