Fiscal devolution in England

Inquiry

The Economic Affairs Committee is launching an inquiry into fiscal devolution in England. The inquiry will consider what form fiscal devolution might take, its distributional consequences, and what governance arrangements might be needed as more powers are devolved to local areas. The committee has issued a call for written evidence and will be taking oral evidence from May 2025.

This inquiry is no longer accepting evidence

The deadline for submissions was 11:59pm on 5 June 2026.
