Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment has his Department made of each business case submitted for the options in consideration for Local Government Reorganisation in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

The government will aim to reach a decision on which option, if any, to implement by October at the latest. This will still allow elections to new councils in May 2027 before they go live in April 2028.
