	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2018 answer text The best way to drive economic growth is to raise productivity. Since 2010, this Government has provided over half a trillion pounds in capital investment, increased investment in skills, and reduced taxes for businesses. Lower taxes provide a strong incentive for businesses to invest in raising their productivity. Tax cuts include reductions to business rates worth over £10bn by 2023, freezing fuel duty for 8 years running, increasing R&D tax credits, and cutting corporation tax. answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 11/09/2018 16:10:51 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2019 answer text <p>The Chancellor has been clear that raising productivity is the only way to expand the economy in the long term. Doing so will mean encouraging growth in the manufacturing sector, boosting the adoption of technology and enabling more British firms to export. That’s why we increased the National Productivity Investment Fund to £37bn at Budget 2018, and have announced a wide range of productivity enhancing measures at previous fiscal events. Most recently this has included £81 million for a new extreme photonics centre in Oxfordshire, £45 million for the European Bioinformatics Institute, and £79 million for a new supercomputer to be hosted at Edinburgh University.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 02/05/2019 07:20:03 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
