The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 31 October 2024 to Question 11148 on Local Plans, if she will write to leaders of local authorities to ask for Local Growth Plans.

Answered by Alex Norris

As places with the leaders with the widest range of powers, functions, and funding, we are working with each of the Mayoral Combined Authorities and the Greater London Authority to produce a Local Growth Plan. But everywhere has an important role to play in driving local growth, with many local authorities having or developing local economic strategies, and we will set out the role of these strategies in supporting growth shortly.
