The government agrees with the Committee’s recommendation. Recommendation implemented. The UK’s Modern Industrial Strategy was published alongside the Spending Review and its priorities are embedded in departmental budgets for the remainder of this Parliament. Each of the IS-8 growth-driving sectors also has a bespoke 10-year Sector Plan, underpinned by R&D and infrastructure commitments. Government departments are required to monitor and evaluate policy delivery and impact. Departments already track their support to businesses; for example, the department can break down its business support grants by sector. The department will collaborate across government and public bodies to enhance tracking and reporting of support to the Industrial Strategy sectors, refine sector definitions, and conduct strategic analysis (e.g. using company microdata) to assess policy effectiveness and economic trends. This analytical programme will be developed in partnership with ISAC to support the Industrial Strategy’s monitoring and evaluation.
