Question
To ask the Deputy Prime Minister, what plans he has to bring forward proposals for further devolution for England.
This question was answered on 10th February 2015
Devolution to local areas is important to this Government and we have a proud record - the Localism Act, the creation of Local Enterprise Partnerships, the Local Government Finance Act, 28 City Deals and the devolution of at least £12bn through Growth Deals which provide the opportunity for all local areas in England to negotiate for freedoms and flexibilities to maximise their economic growth.
