<p>As demonstrated by my appointment as Shipbuilding Tsar, this Government recognises
a need to re-energise some parts of the UK shipbuilding industry. A key objective
of the National Shipbuilding Strategy is to improve the competitiveness of the UK
shipbuilding industry.</p><p>I am working with the Maritime Enterprise Working Group
to identify measures needed to improve competitiveness and productivity, enabling
industry to step up and improve their chances of success when bidding for both UK
and international shipbuilding contracts. This is a long-term programme of improvement,
but I am firmly committed to delivering on the Government's vision for the sector.</p>
