Abstract
The issue of the UK’s low comparative productivity is well known and documented.

Improving productivity would enable faster growth and also provide the Chancellor, looking for headroom to allow for tax cuts in the March 6 budget, with more revenues and needing to borrow less to provide support for those out of work and for the economy more generally.
