Align industrial and trade strategies to maximise growth opportunities for focus sectors
Recommendation
In a rapidly developing and uncertain global trade environment and with an ongoing pipeline of trade negotiations, it is crucial that the industrial strategy and trade strategy are closely aligned. Having chosen eight growth-driving sectors as the focus of the industrial strategy, the Government must now ensure that these sectors are supported to maximise their growth opportunities from future trade. (Conclusion, Paragraph 53)
