Anthony Breach on how to reform the Government's Green Book to level up the country.
Anthony Breach on how to reform the Government's Green Book to level up the country.
The Government plans to reform the Green Book of guidance on how it invests public money. This follows criticism from politicians and other commentators who have suggested that, in its current form, the Green Book inhibits the levelling up agenda by skewing infrastructure investment towards London and the South East.
Are these criticisms fair? And how should the Government use a reformed Green Book to make investment decisions to level up the country?
To discuss this Andrew Carter is joined by Anthony Breach, author of Centre for Cities’ new report Re-writing the Green Book for Levelling Up.
