Treasury Minister Simon Clarke is holding a meeting with the West Yorkshire Combined Authority to discuss extra powers and funding from Westminster.
A devolution deal for the Leeds City Region would empower a new metro mayor, with significant investment made available for local priorities and powers over areas such as transport and skills.
Clarke said: “We are determined to level-up opportunities so that all communities, including those here in West Yorkshire, get their fair share of our future prosperity. Today we take a step forward by opening talks on a mayoral devolution deal for the Leeds City Region – right in the heart of the Northern Powerhouse. This will give local people, who know their area best, the power to shape their own destiny.”
Northern Powerhouse Minister Jake Berry said: “This government is absolutely committed to transferring power, money and responsibility from Whitehall and putting it back in the hands of the people. Our discussions with West Yorkshire represent a significant step forward in securing a workable devolution deal that will allow local people to reap the rewards of having a powerful, locally-elected mayor.”
