Economic Growth: Surrey
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps her Department is taking to support Surrey County Council in delivering sustainable growth.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
Our number one mission is economic growth, and every area across the country has a vital contribution to make to this mission. In Surrey we are supporting this through inviting councils, including Surrey County Council, to come together and consider proposals for reorganisation and devolution which aim to improve service delivery, governance, and long-term economic resilience to support sustainable growth.
Surrey will also benefit from the cross-cutting policies and solutions being delivered by the Industrial Strategy, to help ensure a pro-business environment across the UK.
