12th September 2024 – Jack Abbott MP statement on Suffolk devolution

Following the Government’s promise to re-negotiate the Suffolk devolution settlement to provide a better deal for local residents, I released the following statement:

“The reality is, the deal put on the table by the previous Conservative government shortchanged Suffolk and created a bizarre political settlement.

“I'm much more ambitious for Suffolk - I believe we deserve our fair share - so it is welcome that the new Government will review this devolution settlement and come back with a proper agreement that values our great county.”
