N2 Combined Authority - Have Your Say Discussions have begun between the City, County and Nottinghamshire district councils on the creation of a Combined Authority for the area (which would be known as the “N2” area). As part of the process for creating a Combined Authority, a consultation is taking place to seek views from citizens in all the council areas involved as well as local public, private and voluntary sector organisations. If you would like to have your say on the proposed Combined Authority, please complete the following short survey. Combined Authorities, which have already been established in Greater Manchester, the Liverpool and Sheffield City Regions, West Yorkshire and the North East, are statutory bodies which lead collaboration between authorities on transport, regeneration and economic development. A Combined Authority for Nottingham and Nottinghamshire could help deliver long-term strategic decisions on major issues which are vital to the economic prosperity of the region. Although a Combined Authority (or CA) would effectively be a new body, it would not replace the existing authorities. The CA would co-ordinate regeneration, economic development and transport work across an economic area, with additional powers devolved to them from central Government in return for the promise of benefits through enhanced delivery and efficiency. The closing date for this consultation is 06 February 2015. Q1 Which Council area do you live in? Ashfield District Council Bassetlaw District Council Broxtowe Borough Council Gedling Borough Council Mansfield District Council Newark & Sherwood District Council Nottingham City Council Rushcliffe Borough Council Outside Nottingham City & Nottinghamshire Please type in your Council area Thinking about the local authority areas of Ashfield, Bassetlaw, Broxtowe, Gedling.
