Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 12 September 2018 to Question 170362 on Employment, whether he accepts all of the recommendations of the Carnegie Trust report referenced in that Answer; and what plans he has to implement the recommendations from the Carnegie Trust report.

In response to the Taylor Review, Government has committed to publish a final list of quality of work measures and a baseline assessment of quality of work currently in the UK economy.

We welcome the Carnegie Trust’s report, published on 7th September, as a valuable input to this work. We are currently considering their recommendations and will respond in due course. As part of this, BEIS officials are engaging with ONS to understand whether and how the Carnegie Trust’s recommendations could be implemented in practice.
