Stephen McPartland, MP for Stevenage, welcomed the Government’s new Growth and Infrastructure Bill, which backs local business and cuts excessive red tape, as well as giving a further boost to infrastructure.
Commenting, Stephen said, “We have already delivered new infrastructure investment for the Stevenage area of more than £280 million and these new measures will give businesses greater certainty, which will create even more local jobs. I welcome any effort to reduce red tape which is exactly the action local businesses have been asking for. We will also deliver tax stability for local firms and shops by delaying an unpredictable business rates revaluation which will help keep Stevenage leading the way on fixing our economy.”
