Council of the Nations and Regions: National Identity
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what achievements the Council of the Nations and Regions has delivered; and how it has strengthened the English national identity.
Answered by Nick Thomas-Symonds
The Council has met twice to discuss inward investment, trade, and AI. These meetings ensured we maximised the opportunity the 2024 International Investment Summit presented and identified areas for ongoing collaboration for AI adoption and data sharing. Alongside the second meeting, the Chief Digital and Chief Information Officers from across the devolved governments and Mayoral Strategic Authorities were brought together for the first time by the Government Digital Service to form collaborative partnerships. The Government is committed to ensuring the devolved governments and Mayoral Strategic Authorities in England are able to represent their interests in regular engagement, including intergovernmental forums.
