This examined how public sector investment in health, education and other related areas supports the region’s economy. Representatives from health, education, European projects, business and the public sector gave evidence.

Recommendations asked that Yorkshire Forward should both welcome innovation in public sector investment; and alongside others, especially the Assembly and partners in health, progress the future alignment of public sector investment in relation to health.

Much of this has since been addressed through the development of the Investment Planning process, which aims to align funding streams that contribute to economic development.
