The Hull and East Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (HEYMCA) is the proposed combined authority for the city of Hull and county of East Yorkshire, in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of England.[1] The first election for the Mayor of Hull and East Yorkshire, who will chair HEYMCA, is expected to take place in May 2025.
History[edit]
The Hull and East Yorkshire devolution deal was announced on 22 November 2023.[1] The deal proposes to devolve certain powers, i.e. housing, transport, education and skills as well as environmental matters to HEYMCA.[2][3][4] The consultation by the constituent councils received significant support in favour of the HEYMCA.[5] If the plans are approved, it is hoped that the combined authority would be formally established in autumn 2024.[6]
