This independent review of business relations for a new government has been
supported by a huge number of people and organisations, to whom I extend my
thanks and gratitude.
I want to pay particular thanks to the following for their encouragement and ideas
as well as their support in reviewing early drafts and materials.
In particular, my thanks go to my colleague Dan Julian who has supported me
throughout the review.
My thanks to Syma Cullasy-Aldridge, James Edsberg, Tijs Broeke, Natalie Ceeney,
Fabian Chessell, Lord Gus O’Donnell, Lord Gerry Grimstone, Andrew Barnett, Allen
Simpson, Paul Dreschler, and Juergen Maier for their wise thoughts and
contributions.
To Benny Higgins, who has been conducting similar work in Scotland, and with
whose review these findings dovetail.
To those who have organised events and roundtables including the Federation of
Small Business, Giant Ventures, the British Chambers of Commerce, the Royal
Society for the Arts, Manufactures and Commerce, TheCityUK, the Food and Drink
Federation, Northern Powerhouse Partnership, the Growing Together Alliance,
BusinessLDN, Thames Valley Chamber, the Trade Unions Congress, and Lloyd’s of
London.
I would like to thank the Institute for Government their contribution during the
course of my review.
I also want to thank Jonathan Reynolds MP for his support as I have developed my
thinking.
And finally, but most importantly, my thanks to the over 300 individuals and
organisations who have engaged with my work over the last four months. The
recommendations stem from the conversations had with them but are my own.
