South East England Development Agency (SEEDA)

The Regional Economic Strategy for the South East 2006-2016

The Framework within which every Regional Development Agency (RDA) works is the Regional Economic Strategy (RES). This Strategy is produced every three to four years in consultation with a wide range of stakeholders and defines the region's priorities and targets for the work of all the partners in its delivery – public, private and voluntary. It acts as the pivot between national Public Service Agreements (PSA) targets and local objectives.

The South East England Development Agency (SEEDA) undertook a comprehensive consultation with stakeholders in business, local government and the voluntary sector to produce the third RES for South East England, 2006 – 2016.

Living and working in one of the world's most advanced regional economies brings both benefits and challenges, and the decade ahead will test our resourcefulness and ingenuity to the utmost. The purpose of this strategy is to set a course for the region's economy that addresses those challenges, and secures the benefits of success for all who live and work in the South East.
