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

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, when he plans to announce the full implementation plan for his Department's BIS 2020 strategy.


This question was answered on 10th February 2016

Since summer 2015, the Department has been reviewing its business model. By 2020, we want to simplify our structure, become more digital, be cheaper for taxpayers and better for users. As part of this we anticipate reducing the number of our locations from more than 80 to approximately 7 centres plus a regional footprint.

BIS2020 is a rolling programme that will be delivered through a number of different strands of the Department’s work.
