Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what the timetable is for publication of his review into improving the productivity and growth of small and medium-sized businesses.
The review will focus on what actions could be most effective in improving productivity and growth of SMEs, including how to address what has been called ‘long tail’ of lower productivity firms. We will announce the policies we intend to take forward following this review in Autumn 2018.
