Regional Development Agencies (RDAs)
The 9 Regional Development Agencies (RDAs), divided along the same lines as the Government Offices for the Regions, were set up by the Government to act as tools for encouraging and furthering sustainable economic development in the English regions. The RDAs are business led non-departmental public bodies, and are accountable to the Department of Trade and Industry. Primarily, the RDAs work to improve the economic performance of the English regions and to reduce social and economic disparities across the country.
