24 Sep 2025
Priorities of the Business and Trade Committee for 2026 Business and Trade Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 14 Nov 2025) The UK economy confronts challenges to growth, weak productivity and fragile investment. Businesses face rising costs, regulatory uncertainty, and a complex trade environment. Yet confidence is central to whether firms invest, recruit and innovate—or hold back. Ahead of the Budget, the Prime Minister has signalled a renewed focus on boosting economic growth. The Government has said that it will set up a new board, including ministerial, advisory and business representatives, to help steward pro-growth policies, and encourage dialogue with business and the City. The Committee will now put this question of priorities for growth at the heart of a new consultation on its workplan for 2026. |
