00:00Just over two years ago, I spoke to the communities of Cambridge, Rhode Island and talked about the Combined Authority being on life support.
00:08Today, I am absolutely delighted to announce that after a long journey, we have received correspondence from the Minister of Local Government, Jim McMahon, to say that we will not need to have an extension of the Best Value Notice.
00:22This is a real pivotal moment for the area.
00:26It has only happened by the ability for all the Combined Authority constituent members to work together with the members and the officers of all the organisations coming together for the greater good of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough and all our communities.
00:39I'm obviously delighted to have had this news and I'm looking forward, really, really looking forward to going forward with all the constituent members and continuing to deliver the good work and all of the kind of ambitions that we have for our area.
