A pivotal moment
for the future of
Lancashire.

The Lancashire Independent Economic Review (IER) is being directed by an Independent Panel and will help define the economic agenda for Lancashire for the next ten years.

It will show how the county can build on its world-beating strengths, tackle its economic challenges, deliver environmentally responsible and inclusive growth while shaping public sector reform and local government reorganisation.

Meet the Independent Panel

The IER is being directed by an independent panel, made up of experts from a range of fields. It is being chaired by Rowena Burns, the Chair of Health Innovation Manchester.
