Did you know you have until Monday to express your views about “home rule” for Cornwall?
The difficulty of undertaking a coherent and robust public consultation about devolution has been exemplified by Truro City Council, whose 24 councillors last month agreed to leave it to the mayor and clerk to frame a response on their behalf.
One idea suggested at last month’s Truro City Council meeting was the reintroduction of a Cornwall police force, divorced from Devon.
The government’s position, at least initially, is that it wants councils to consider combining with their neighbours in return for a seat at a new Council for the Nations and Regions. This could mean a Devon and Cornwall combined authority. But while councils in Devon are talking to each other, so far none has approached Cornwall.
The issue is expected to make progress before the end of next month.
