Event: Devolution that delivers: fiscal power for regional growth

About Event: Devolution that delivers: fiscal power for regional growth

This autumn, IPPR North and IPPR, together with Arup, launched a landmark report on fiscal devolution, calling for bold new powers to unlock the economic promise of devolution by giving mayors further tax, spend and borrowing powers, and setting out what is needed to make this ambitious, fair and sustainable.

At this event, we'll explore the announcements contained in the recent Budget and discuss how greater fiscal powers can help mayors unlock the full economic potential of devolution.

We are delighted to be joined by Bev Craig OBE, Mayor of Greater Manchester, who will offer a keynote address. 

For more information please contact Olivia Vaughan on [email protected]. 

This event is held in partnership with Arup.
