Economic Analysis

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will publish the Index of Economic Need methodology.

Answer

As set out in the prospectus published at Budget, the index used for the Levelling Up Fund places areas into category one, two or three based on the local area’s need for economic recovery and growth, improved transport connectivity, and regeneration. We will shortly publish further detail on the methodology used to calculate the index.
