Absence of growth strategy slammed by MPs
20th February 2011
One of the key issues facing the UK is how best to sustain a sufficiently robust recovery given the difficult internal and external economic headwinds in 2011 and 2012. I blogged about this last week (here) after an LSE lecture given by John Van Reenen. And a new report has been published by the UK Parliament Business, Innovation and Skills Committee in their Third Report on Government Assistance to Industry. There is some interesting stuff in there including short case studies on our creative industries and environmental industries although I was hoping for some more substantial data which might be useful for teaching.
