The chancellor, Healey, is due to announce policies intended to strengthen British shipbuilding in a speech at Labour’s annual conference on Monday.
The measures will be presented as part of a wider ambition to begin what Healey is expected to describe as a “new age of industrialisation” for the UK. The announcement will focus specifically on boosting the country’s shipbuilding sector.
The speech will set out the proposed policies before the Labour conference, although the supplied details do not specify the individual measures involved or their expected cost.
Further information on the plans is expected when Healey delivers the conference address on Monday.
