answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/01/2016 answer text <p>The Northern Powerhouse is part of the Government’s long-term economic plan to rebalance growth across the regions of the UK and enable the north to be greater than the sum of its parts. The exact extent of the North in the context of the Northern Powerhouse is not prescribed by the Government. The Northern Powerhouse and devolution are locally-led and it is for the local areas of the North to decide on the extent of their involvement.</p> answering member printed Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth question first answered 26/01/2016 16:09:39 answering member 4282 label Biography information for Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth

Anglesey’s Energy Island can help ensure that north Wales plays a key part in this vision", whether North Wales is part of the Northern Powerhouse; and if so, what role the Welsh Assembly, Welsh Government, and appropriate Welsh local authorities are playing in the decision-making on the Northern Powerhouse and its investment and other activities.
