Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how much core funding her Department plans to provide to Growth Hubs in each remaining year of the Spending Review period (a) 2023-24 and (b) 2024-25.

No final decision has been made on the level of core funding for the network of 38 Growth Hubs across England after 31 March 2023. As with previous years, we will inform Growth Hubs’ parent Local Enterprise Partnerships and Combined Authorities at the earliest opportunity.
