[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill aims to give London more control over its own affairs by transferring certain powers from the central UK government to London's local government. It's part of the 'devolution' process, which means spreading government power away from Westminster to regions that want to run more of their own services.

Presented by Gareth Thomas.
