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

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the reply by Lord Henley on 15 November (HL Deb, col 2018), what will be the median salary of new jobs created by the fourth industrial revolution; and what is the source of that data.

In the debate of 15 November I spoke about the recently published Made Smarter Review (30^th Oct) led by Juergen Maier, CEO of Siemens UK, which the government commissioned. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, along with colleagues across government including the Department for Education and Department for Culture, Media & Sport, are carefully considering the data and recommendations set out in the final report, including those relating to labour market impacts.
