Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, if he will make an assessment with her counterparts in the devolved Administrations of the effectiveness of enterprise zones in each region.
The Department has learnt valuable lessons from the delivery of the Enterprise Zones program that have informed the development of more recent zonal policies such as Freeports and Investment Zones. The government is committed to robust monitoring and evaluation of Freeports and Investment Zones to ensure their success and will report on their impact annually.
