Nottingham agrees to take Devolution plans to public consultation
Devolution [ [link removed] ]
City councillors formally agreed to go to public consultation on plans for a devolution deal at Full Council today.
As the Leader of Nottingham City Council, I and the leaders of Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Derby councils have signed up to work on a devolution deal, after the Government offered the region a package of new powers and funding worth ?1.14 billion.
?
We have been working on agreeing a more detailed proposal, which includes information on how devolution would work and how it would benefit local people. The plans would see a new regional mayor and new type of combined authority created for the area from 2024.
This deal would bring in more powers and more money and allows more decisions to be made locally. We would make the most of every penny and every opportunity from this deal and it could make a real difference to people?s lives. This includes more and better jobs, more investment, economic growth, better transport, housing, skills training, and an improved and more sustainable environment.
All four councils need to agree the proposals before we can move to a consultation, where residents, businesses and other organisations can have their say on the plans. Find out more on the deal ? www.eastmidlandsdevolution.co.uk [ [link removed] ]
