	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2019 answer text <p>Social enterprise is very much part of the government’s vision for a stronger, greener future for the UK, where we lead the world in tackling climate change and improve lives by taking on the grand challenges facing our society. The Industrial Strategy provides a framework to take action against those goals by boosting productivity and earning power across the UK, and to make the UK the best place to work and grow a business. All enterprises are part of that vision, whether they retain or distribute profits, or re-invest for social or community purposes. Furthermore, the government welcomes the contribution social enterprise makes to local growth and prosperity in communities up and down the country.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 29/10/2019 17:51:14 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2020 answer text <p>Manufacturing is a critical part of our economy. The Department is engaging with industry to ensure that we can support our manufacturing sectors during and after the Covid-19 crisis. The Government has introduced an unprecedented package of support to help businesses continue, and to give manufacturers and their suppliers the support they need to help them get back up and running after the Covid-19 crisis.</p><p> </p><p>The Department is in regular contact with<strong> </strong>businesses who provide raw materials, such as recycled scrap metal, and with the manufacturers themselves, to understand the demand requirements of raw materials. To date, we have not received any indication that the supply of imported raw materials has been impacted. However, we are aware of tighter supplies of waste materials used for feedstock in steel, aluminium, and paper sectors, and we remain in close contact with impacted sectors to monitor the ongoing situation.</p><p> </p><p>We also recognise that freight operators and their workforce (including all those working in supply chains) are vital to the continued flow of critical goods. Freight is currently moving effectively across borders into the UK.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 06/05/2020 13:07:24 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
