Amendment 29 in the name of my noble friend Lord Blunkett requires the publication of national skills priorities for the identified government departments and bodies. The Government are designing ambitious and targeted sector plans for each of the eight growth-driving sectors identified in the industrial strategy. This will include an important focus on skills needs. These plans will be developed in partnership with businesses, devolved Governments, regions, experts and other stakeholders, and will be published in spring 2025.
