Chamber chief urges swift delivery of building investment
The chief executive of the Black Country Chamber of Commerce has urged that the £5 billion of capital investment announced by the Prime Minister in Dudley is delivered swiftly to raise business confidence in the region.
Corin Crane said the "Build, Build, Build" announcements by Boris Johnson would be welcomed by many firms across the Black Country who worked in the construction and manufacturing sector.
"They must be delivered swiftly to drive and 'ramp up' business confidence and providing meaningful opportunities for employment across the region.
"Given that the Prime Minister chose our region to launch his "New Deal" it's now up to business communities here to take full advantage of these opportunities and to drive growth in the Black Country.
"It goes without saying that the Black Country Chamber of Commerce stands ready to work with the Prime Minister and his team to make these initiatives happen as soon as possible."
