Hmmmm.... interesting; Lancashire will become a combined authority next year... gaining less powers than if it was a Mayorality but expanding decision-making at the county level (instead of centralised national decision-making).
Howe much difference will it make? Well much of that will depend on how the funding & revenue powers play out.
But certainly a move in the right direction towards (but not reaching) regional devolution!
