Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will review the eligibility criteria for the Help to Grow Management course; and if he will extend that criteria to include businesses employing between one and four people.
The Help to Grow Management course is designed to help SMEs to improve their productivity. It targets businesses with 5-249 employees as the course by its nature requires a reasonable span of leadership and management within the firm for the benefits to be realised.
