The government has set itself a mission that, by 2030, every part of England that wants one will have a devolution deal, with powers at or approaching the highest level of devolution, with a simplified, long-term funding settlement.

Details of major funding programmes, including the Local Government Finance Settlement and those administered by local government or other local bodies, are available on gov.uk.
