I will be refreshing my Economic Development Strategy in the light of work on the 2020 Vision in due course, working with my newly appointed Deputy Mayor for Business and Enterprise. In the meantime, I have set clear priorities regarding apprenticeships and jobs (with targets) which I will be focusing on in order to foster growth and opportunity in London.
