Mayors: North of England
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 19 May 2025 to Question 51319 on Mayors: North of England, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of (a) her Department's funding for devolved services and (b) other forms of Government support for local mayors to reduce (i) economic and (ii) health inequalities in the North West.
- Answer
-
We are giving local leaders, including mayors in the North West, the tools they need to deliver growth and raise living standards in their areas by devolving power and money from central government.
This includes strong new powers over housing, planning, transport, energy, employment support and a stronger role in joining up public services locally, backed up with integrated and consolidated funding.
