Sir Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves have been criticised by green groups for dismissing protections for species such as newts and spiders as blockers to growth. Mr Corry said a streamlined system would be better for nature and long-term economic growth and said the two should not be seen as a zero-sum game, although he acknowledged there would be "short term trade-offs".

This is a transcript of Dan Corry’s speech at NPC Ignites 2024, with additional links and headings. Good morning. And thank you for being here to listen to my last speech as NPC CEO. I think you should always be suspicious of the person leaving their job who claims they have achieved loads – so I don’t want to exaggerate any of that! In any case, anything achieved has been a result of having terrific and passionate staff at NPC over many years. I came to the sector pretty cold.

How do you evaluate if your charity project is working? One the biggest problems in evaluation is having good, longitudinal data to see what has happened over time. For most organisations, programmes, and interventions this is very difficult. Particularly for charities. Following up with the same people a few years later to see what happened to them is hard.

However, this year the theme and line up for our annual NPC Ignites conference in October has hit the nail on the head. Following the election of a new energetic Labour government, new possibilities have opened up.

Rachel Reeves gave the Mais lecture in March 2024. While it was rightly cautious and light on detail given the impending general election, it gives us strong clues as to what kind of Chancellor of the Exchequer she will be.

In ‘normal’ times, getting philanthropic money into local areas with many needs is very valuable. In times of fiscal tightness following a long period of prolonged austerity, Covid, wars, and a cost of living crisis, it is much more than a ‘nice to have’. That is why the next government should think hard about how to work with philanthropy at a place-based level – to encourage and promote it and ensure it is effective and impactful.

A pre-election Budget is always going to be a bit of a rum affair. Sound economics and the setting out of a path for the medium term are submerged by the need for votes. This is even more the case if your party is behind in opinion polls. The economic background to this Budget was not great, with pretty anemic growth for a number of years followed by a recession in the second half of 2023. And everybody has felt the cost-of-living squeeze.
