This UK government response to the Kruger report's recommendations is published alongside the Levelling Up White Paper which sets out the government’s wider approach to driving levelling up.

Includes a commitment to develop 'New official measures to understand and track the economic and social contribution of civil society.': "DCMS will work with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to bring together economic data on the value of the social economy - a civil society ‘satellite account’ - so that our estimates more fully reflect the scope of the sector."
