The UK2070 Commission is an independent inquiry into city and regional inequalities in the UK.
Chaired by Lord Kerslake, it has been set up to conduct a review of the policy and spatial issues related to the UK’s long-term city and regional development.
The Commission will run in four phases, from July 2018 to January 2020, with a formal launch event having taken place at the House of Lords in October 2018. Further meetings and consultations will take place across the UK.
The project partners include the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy; the University of Manchester; the University of Sheffield; University College London; the Sir Hugh Sykes Charitable Trust (SHSCT) and the RSA (Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce).
The Commission’s formal Call for Evidence remains open, and they are still gladly accepting submissions. They will be publishing the progress report in early 2019.
