00:00It's time to upgrade the regulatory regime, make it fit for the modern age, harness every
00:07opportunity available to Britain. We will rip up the bureaucracy that blocks investment.
00:13We will march through the institutions and make sure that every regulator in this country,
00:19especially our economic and competition regulators, take growth as seriously as this room does.
00:27We are united behind growth. Our door is open and the work of change has already begun.
00:34We are reforming the planning system. The onshore wind ban has gone. New projects in
00:40solar, wind, tidal energy, carbon capture and storage, tax relief for the creative industries,
00:48investment from the world's leading companies, Blackstone, Amazon, a new partnership with
00:54Cyrus One to build data centres in Didcot, finally grasping the nettle on airport expansion,
01:01a new £1 billion commitment from Manchester Airport Group to expand Stansted, opening
01:07up new routes for work and holiday destinations. The first of tens of billions worth of inward
01:14investment deals that we will sign today, because we are determined to lead the way
01:20on growth, determined to get Britain building, determined to get our economy moving through
01:27the shock and awe of investment. That's the message to take home today when the big decisions
01:35are made, when you go back to your boardrooms and ask, where does our money go? Where do
01:42our jobs go? Where does our investment go for a better future? Let me offer you a new
01:49answer. It's time to back Britain. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you.
