Rejected57 ayes · 309 noes

What the vote was about

This division was on an amendment to the English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill. The bill is the main vehicle for granting Cornwall and other areas greater autonomy over local services. The amendment would have inserted a requirement for consultation with local communities before devolution agreements are finalised, a matter of direct interest to Cornwall’s residents and councils.
