 These briefings provide a broad outline of the Bradford economy.
 
 They reflect the current position and consider possible trends.
 They do not include information on the range of programmes and delivery mechanisms that already address the issues they raise.
 
 The intention is to build on this work over the coming months.
 If there are areas of focus that you would like to see investigated please contact Kate McNicholas.
