Question
To ask the Deputy Prime Minister, what support the Government is giving to business growth opportunities in Medway.
This question was answered on 8th July 2014
As I announced yesterday, the Government is awarding the South East LEP a total of £6.8m to help develop a Growth Hub in Kent and Medway which will simplify and better co-ordinate the range of services delivered to businesses in the area.
The Government has also funded the TIGER RGF programme which has been allocated £20m to support businesses seeking finance for growth in north Kent and Thurrock, Essex. The scheme extends beyond Medway but the largest concentration of eligible employers is in the Medway area.
