(21 November 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what criteria she uses to create regional authorities.

Asked by:
Sir Oliver Dowden (Conservative)

Answer

This government believes that the benefits of devolution are best achieved through the establishment of combined authorities or combined county authorities over sensible economic geographies and supported by a mayor. We want every part of England to take its place on the Council of Nations and Regions, with strong and effective partnerships in place with councils and other partners to deliver the missions we have set out to transform the country.
