A government-wide action plan identifying over 500 ways to reduce red tape was unveiled by the Prime Minister today. The government ‘Simplification Plans’ will save business and the third sector over £2 billion in administrative costs.
The detailed measures, across 19 departments and agencies, have been identified as a result of comprehensive consultation with business, public and third sector organisations. The aim is to cut administrative burdens by 25% by 2010*.
