Abstract
This article is a response to Frank Coffield's recent reflections in this journal on the Performance and Innovation Unit' s project on workforce development in Britain. It questions the extent to which the PIU's findings represent a 'new understanding' of the UK's skills problem and asks why academics have been so reluctant to spell out what a demand-side strategy for tackling the problem would involve.
