Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will meet with local leaders on a possible future deal on investment, infrastructure, and powers for the York City Region.
We always welcome discussions with any local leaders who bring forward proposals for a deal which relates to a sensible economic area, including a York City Region deal. Any deal must have local support, and if in Yorkshire, support our, and the newly elected Sheffield City Region Mayor's, priority to implement fully as soon as practicable that City Region's deal.
