(asked on 6th February 2023) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask His Majesty's Government what progress they have made in delivering a combined authority and metro mayor for the Solent and Hampshire.
This question was answered on 20th February 2023
In the Levelling Up White Paper the Government committed 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 and a simplified, long-term funding settlement.
We welcome the ambition demonstrated in the recent Pan-Hampshire Deal Prospectus and we look forward to working with local councils across Hampshire and the Solent.
