Combined Authorities

[edit]

Combined authority

Combined Authorities should be added for England, I devolves a variety of powers depending on whether certain criteria is Met.[1]

Level three deals require the adoption of a mayor – either as directly-elected leader of a county council, or as chair of a combined authority – but offer the most expansive powers, including the ability to absorb the functions of Local Enterprise Partnerships and – where the geography aligns – of the Police and Crime Commissioner. All six deals announced in 2022 are at level three of the devolution framework. The East Midlands deal will create the first CCA; the York and North Yorkshire and North East deals will create new MCAs; and the Norfolk, Suffolk and Cornwall deals will involve a directly-elected council leader. Level two deals can be concluded with county councils or combined authorities that are not led by a directly-elected mayor. They offer fewer powers – notably not including control of transport spending or a long-term investment fund. Level one deals are far more limited, offering only a limited “strategic role in delivering services”.

No level two or level one deals have yet been concluded.
