Commission
The commission for a devolution revolution
About the commission
The commission on a devolution revolution explores how the UK can empower nations, regions, and local areas by giving them a greater say and building a fairer democratic system in every part of the country. With growing support for devolution, tight local government budgets, and low public trust, the need to give communities real power is more pressing than ever.
Our vision
Revitalise democracy
We must revitalise our democracy by giving people a genuine voice and placing decision-making power closer to individuals and communities.
Devolving power
We support devolving power to the nations and regions of the UK. This measure would allow people to have a greater say in the policies and decisions that directly affect their lives.
A real voice
Our current political system is broken and unfair. We need urgent reform to ensure power is shared more equally across the UK.
