Answer
The Secretary of State wrote to local leaders on 16 July 2024 to confirm that the government will publish a new devolution framework. The King’s Speech confirmed on 17 July that the English Devolution Bill will put the new framework into legislation. MHCLG is now working across Whitehall and with Mayors to develop the content of the new framework. The new framework will be developed in co-operation with the sector and will be published in due course.
