District Councillors covering Stamford welcome the rejection for a proposed devolution bid
for the Greater Lincolnshire region
A letter rejecting Lincolnshire's bid for devolution is being welcomed by district councillors covering the Stamford area.
The proposals would see greater funding and more powers across the region but could see district councils disappear.
South Kesteven District council argues now is not the right time for reorganisation of local Government.
It says it's response to Covid-19 shows they are very much needed.
Lincolnshire County Council has pledged to re-apply for the status at a later date.
