The Local Economic Assessment (LEA) provides an understanding of local economic conditions, the economic geography of the district and the economic, social and environmental factors that impact on economic growth in Bradford. This information informs economic interventions across the district, enabling better use of limited resources, and contributes to the sustainable development of the district.
The first economic assessment was produced using the latest data as at December 2010, and has now been refreshed in light of more recently published data in 2011. A first set of updates were made in September 2011, with additional updates in January 2012.
The revised document can be downloaded from the link below. Those pages in the document that have been updated have been marked as revised. Further updates will be made during 2012.
A supporting change report highlights the major changes in GVA, sectors, the city centre economy and other local economic trends over the last year. This can also be downloaded below.
