## Description

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority has appointed an agency to develop a public affairs campaign that specifically covers an intense period of activity between March and June 2025 to meet our immediate objectives of attempting to align Government to West Yorkshire's priorities ahead of the Spending Review\. This is particularly significant given West Yorkshire Combined Authority is in the second cohort of areas that will receive an Integrated Settlement from March 2026\. Immediate objectives to deliver between March and June 2025 will then be supported by an additional nine-month period of campaign activity from June 2025 to March 2026\.
