Regional (economic) strategy
The Regional Economic Strategy (RES) for South West England was
launched in Plymouth on 23 May 2006. It provides a shared vision
for the development of the region’s economy for the years
2006-2015. The RES informs the Agency’s corporate plan, which in turn guides the
Agency’s work.
Together with the Strategic Leaders’ Board, the South West RDA
is now developing a Single Regional Strategy, following assent for
the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction (LDEDC)
Act. The Single Regional Strategy will eventually replace the
Regional Economic Strategy and the Regional Spatial Strategy.
The Regional Economic Strategy (RES), Delivery Framework and
Annual Progress Report are available for download below:
