Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority has now been formerly established, moving the area closer to unlocking a £400m investment fund.

The combined authority, which will be led by an elected Mayor, was created after Hull City Council and East Riding of Yorkshire Council agreed a devolution deal with the Government.

The leader of Hull City Council, Cllr Mike Ross, said the move ‘unlocks vital empowerment and investment’.

‘This is fantastic news and serves as a significant landmark in the devolution process,’ added Cllr Anne Handley, leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council.

‘It’s great to receive official confirmation that devolved powers will be coming to our area, with an elected mayor, and the ability to unlock investment and opportunities for our region.’
