Industry: Cornwall
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps he is taking to promote industrial growth in Cornwall.
Answered by Chris McDonald
Through the Industrial Strategy, we are supporting industrial growth in Cornwall through targeted investment, innovation and local partnership. Through programmes such as the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, Freeports and the £30m Kernow Growth Fund delivered by Cornwall Council, we are backing high-value sectors including clean energy, marine, space and advanced manufacturing.
We work closely with local leaders to attract private investment, strengthen supply chains and create skilled jobs—ensuring Cornwall benefits from national growth priorities while building on its distinctive economic strengths.
