Government report signals new focus on engineering

Abstract:
Six "vital" manufacturing sectors have been identified, these are: aerospace, silicon electronics, plastics/printed electronics, industrial biotechnology, composites and nanotechnology.

"Despite having a more skilled workforce than at any time in our history, we still lag behind many of our major economic competitors," said Chris Humphries, chief executive of the UK Commission for Employment and Skills.
