Consultation Response
Response from the UK Women’s Budget Group (April 2017)
In its submission to the UK Government’s Industrial Strategy Consultation, the Women’s Budget Group welcomes the government’s recognition that a modern industrial strategy is needed to deliver a ‘fairer society’. We believe that the priorities set out in the strategy could be achieved more easily if there was concerted action to address gender and other inequalities.
The key points of the submission include:
Social Infrastructure is Key
Developing skills
Address Low Pay and Insecure Contracts
Assess Equality Impact
