West Northamptonshire Council is set to discuss the options available for the area to progress towards becoming part of a Foundation Strategic Authority.
The discussion follows the Government’s recent invitation for areas which are not already part of its Devolution Priority Programme to formulate proposals that would give more power and decision making to local leaders.
Becoming a Foundation Strategic Authority would allow West Northamptonshire and neighbouring areas to take an important first step towards greater control over key issues such as jobs, transport, housing, skills and long-term investment.
