Our response to the publication of the government's English Devolution White Paper
16 December 2024
Leader, Cllr Jill Cleary's, statement in response to the English Devolution White Paper:
Today, the government has published its devolution white paper, including the potential for merging district councils into larger unitary authorities.
I want to assure you that we are reviewing the content and implications of the proposals in the English Devolution White Paper.
For our valued staff, potential changes can bring uncertainty so we will prioritise transparency and open communication. For our people and place, we remain steadfast to our primary goal of delivering exceptional services to our community.
My commitment remains to ensure the New Forest has a strong voice in the discussions to come.
English Devolution White Paper.
