The product of a two-year enquiry into the UK economy, the final report of the IPPR Commission on Economic Justice presents a 10-part plan for economic reform to achieve prosperity and justice together.

Its executive summary sets out the report’s key messages, gives an overview of the arguments for a new economic approach given in Part I of the report, explains the Commission’s key analytical findings set out in Part II, and provides a full list of its recommendations. It also lists all the discussion and policy papers published by the Commission.

The full report is available as a book published by Polity Press in association with IPPR. It can also be read or downloaded online.
