PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Local Government: Devolution (27 August 2024)
Question Asked
Asked by:
Paul Waugh (Labour)
Answer
In the first days of this Government, the Prime Minister and I met Mayors in Downing Street to discuss devolution and the critical role for mayors in delivering our Mission of Economic Growth.
Building on the last Labour Government’s legacy of the devolution in Scotland and Wales, the Prime Minister and I are determined to see devolution extended to every corner of England and I have invited local areas without a devolution agreement to come forward.
We will continue to work with local leaders, councils, Members of Parliament and stakeholders to deepen and widen devolution across England.
