Select committee: Business, Innovation, Science and Trade Committee

Recommendation 13

6th Report - The UK-US economic relationship: 250 years on Published 4 Jul 2026 Addressed to Department for Business and Trade
Recommendation (the committee's words)
To improve investment into the UK, the Government should focus on the factor conditions rather than government-to-government deals. These are competitive energy costs, faster grid connections, expeditious planning processes, and governance simplicity for investors. We reiterate the recommendations in our recent report on Investing in the UK economy. (Recommendation, Paragraph 68)
