'Heart of Wessex' nightmare.
Another new scheme from the Labour government.
Will it help us? Or just see another council tax drain on our pockets
The Leaders of Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire Councils are optimistic that they can work with Government to progress proposals for the Heart of Wessex Mayoral Strategic Authority following the publication of the Devolution White Paper.
Should the Heart of Wessex proposal be brought forward within the first phase, it is possible that next year’s local elections could be postponed to be aligned with mayoral elections in 2026.
This would impact elections in Wiltshire which are currently scheduled for 1 May 2025.
