What assessment he has made of his Department's progress in levelling up the economy of the Tees Valley.
Answered on
9 March 2021
The Government remains committed to levelling up opportunity across the UK, including in the Tees Valley.
At the Budget I confirmed a series of measures to level up Tees Valley’s economy:
- New investment in offshore wind ports infrastructure;
- the Teesside Freeport, which I visited with the Prime Minster on Thursday;
- and the new Treasury economic campus in Darlington.
The Tees Valley will also benefit from two new Towns Fund Deals, in Middlesbrough and Thornaby.
