So, 5000 x..."Offer 5000 training grants"<br /><br />So, 5000 x £2000 = £10,000,000 - how is this going to be paid for?<br /><br />"Create a Jobs and Growth Innovation Programme..."<br /><br />Ermmmmm, what does that actually mean?<br /><br />"Cut red tape for businesses by introducing a ‘one-in-one-out’ rule"<br /><br />So no real evaluation of the of regulations, why they were first introduced, what the effect of removing them, etc just abolished because something else is being regulated.
