English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill Report Stage: New Clause 80

Rejected187 ayes · 320 noes

What the vote was about

This division was on a proposed new clause to the English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill. The bill determines how powers over housing, transport, health and economic development are transferred from central government to regions and counties, including Cornwall. The new clause would have altered the framework for community empowerment and local control, matters of direct interest to Cornwall’s ongoing devolution negotiations.
