The UK Government, on 8 September 2008, unveiled a new strategy for the UK's manufacturing sector - 'New Challenges, New Opportunities'. The strategy brings together almost £150 million of medium term support for UK manufacturing, and sets out the Government's view of what the sector needs for success in the long term - including seizing the opportunities of the low carbon economy, supporting skills, realising overseas opportunities, and improving the perceptions and understanding of manufacturing.
