Baroness Williams of Trafford
From the public, my Lords. We are moving to a more decentralised system within England through city deals and devolution deals. The devolution deals are confined not just to cities.
Baroness O'Neill of Bengarve (CB)
My Lords, is the noble Baroness aware that by doing separate bits of devolution for the separate devolved nations we do not make progress towards retaining the United Kingdom, we risk its dissolution?
Baroness Williams of Trafford
My Lords, this Question is around devolution in England rather than devolution to England and is confined purely to the local government aspect.
