Levelling Up Fund
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what assessment he has made of the impact of levelling up funding on UK productivity.
- Answer
-
Levelling up is about boosting pay and productivity, especially in places where they are lagging. The Levelling Up White Paper set out 12 long-term levelling up missions including a mission on living standards, which set out that by 2030, pay, employment and productivity will have risen in every area of the UK, with each containing a globally competitive city, and the gap between the top performing and other areas closing.
As part of our commitment to levelling up, my department has committed over £9.9 billion from levelling up funds since 2019. Monitoring and evaluation strategies for our levelling up funds can be found on gov.uk.
