The Government is re-organising local authorities and bringing in new mayoral powers under its devolution plans.
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner will highlight the "biggest power shift in a generation" under the government's English Devolution programme during a speech at the Convention of the North in Preston. The plans include reorganizing local authorities, introducing new mayoral powers, and increasing building in the North, aiming to address the region's long-standing power imbalance.
