PM says King’s Speech will kickstart change with over 35 bills
Sir Keir Starmer emphasized that the government’s proposed package is just the beginning of the changes they aim to implement, with a focus on economic growth as the cornerstone of their agenda.
In the upcoming King’s Speech, the government plans to introduce over 35 bills, including new laws to empower local leaders and enhance the role of the economic watchdog. These measures are part of the administration’s priorities for the next parliamentary session.
One of the key components of the legislative agenda is strengthening the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), as outlined in Labour’s manifesto. This move is intended to ensure accountability and prevent mishandling of public finances in the future.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer stressed the urgency of their work, stating that they are committed to rebuilding the country for the long-term. The proposed laws are seen as an essential step towards achieving this goal.
Additionally, the government’s agenda includes initiatives to boost economic growth, such as the national wealth fund and plans to transition to clean power by 2030. These measures aim to create wealth and opportunities across the UK.
As part of the government’s strategy, there will be a focus on decentralizing power and investing in key areas like housebuilding, infrastructure, and job creation. The goal is to stimulate growth and improve the lives of working people.
While specific details about the upcoming legislation remain undisclosed, Sir Keir Starmer reiterated that economic growth will be the primary focus of the government’s efforts moving forward.
