Nadhim Zahawi – 2022 Comments on Visit to Darlington

The comments made by Nadhim Zahawi, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on 26 July 2022.

It was great to work from the Darlington Economic Campus yesterday and announce the Treasury’s new permanent office at the heart of the town.

We are levelling up across the UK, tapping into the extraordinary talent in towns across the country and I am eager to see more Treasury roles in Darlington.

People in all parts of this great country have a right to be at the heart of government decision-making and we are delivering on that promise by moving up to 300 Treasury roles to Darlington by 2025.
