The scale and ambition of levelling up requires genuine co-design, co-delivery, collaboration and input from policymakers, delivery partners, stakeholders and the public across the whole of the UK. The Government is committed to engaging widely and comprehensively with a wide range of stakeholders and partners. My officials are in consistent dialogue with stakeholders in York, including conversations led by our Local Growth team based in Yorkshire. These conversations have included the prospects for a mayoral devolution deal for York and North Yorkshire, for which negotiations will now begin as committed to in the Levelling Up White Paper.
