Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to continue with plans to publish the Space Workforce Action Plan; and if so, when.
Answered by
Lord Vallance of Balham
Minister of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology)
The government is determined to develop the skilled workforce that the UK needs across the whole economy, including in space. That is why it is creating Skills England and will bring forward a comprehensive strategy for post-16 education to break down barriers to opportunity, support the development of a skilled workforce, and drive economic growth through our industrial strategy. Decisions about sector specific workforce action plans will be taken in due course.
