Devolution and Local Government Reorganisation

How you can get involved?

Councils looking at local government reorganisation need to submit an interim plan by 21 March 2025. Because this initial deadline is so tight, we’re carrying out some initial engagement with residents and stakeholders to help shape our interim plans.

We also have a short feedback form if you’d like to tell us what you think about devolution at this early stage.

A more comprehensive package of public engagement will follow this summer to help us develop final proposals that must be submitted by 28 November 2025.

Government will also carry out a consultation on any final proposal, so there will be ample opportunity for people to get involved.

Have your say using this short feedback form.
