Justin Madders – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Communities and Local Government

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Justin Madders on 2016-04-21.

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what representations he has received in favour of elected mayors in Cheshire and Warrington.

James Wharton

Cheshire and Warrington were one of 38 areas across the country to submit devolution deal proposals in September 2015. Devolution deal proposals are developed and led by local areas. Therefore, the decision to release information regarding the content of any submission—including governance objectives—is a matter for the local area to decide, not the Government.
