Lee Sirdifield is the interim chief operating officer of the GLCCA, He said:
“Councils in Greater Lincolnshire pursued a devolution deal to bring more local decision-making, funding and responsibilities to this area from government. An elected Mayor was part of this deal, to be a powerful advocate for Greater Lincolnshire at a national and international level.
