Meeting of City Deal Councils

Council Leaders from across the City Deal area (Coventry City Council, Warwickshire County Council, Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council, North Warwickshire Borough Council, Rugby Borough Council, Stratford -on-Avon District Council, Warwick District Council and Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council) met earlier today and had a very constructive meeting to discuss all potential structural options to optimise our joint economic future. This included exploration of economic prosperity boards and combined authorities.

All Leaders are in agreement that any decision about future arrangements will only be made once all implications and benefits to their councils, businesses and residents are fully explored and understood.

All Leaders have agreed to meet again early in the new year to continue these discussions.
