# GMCA sets the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept

Date: 2024

## The fact

In February 2024 the Greater Manchester Combined Authority agreed the 2024/25 mayoral and police-and-crime precept, a completed local-tax instrument under Mayor Burnham.

## Context

Borough leaders sit on GMCA. He chairs. Households pay through council tax bills. He did not sit as every billing authority clerk.

Bee Network fares are neighbouring user-charge files. 2019 austerity GMCA budget is a neighbouring earlier squeeze.

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is head of His Majesty’s Government. Parliament writes statutes; the King appoints; combined authorities and departments implement; courts can stay a scheme. A prime minister can take an oath, announce everyday consumer fixes, and sit in Cabinet. He does not write a Greater Manchester by-law by himself after leaving the mayoralty, a UN resolution, or a Supreme Court judgment.

## Evidence and sources

Greater Manchester Combined Authority carries the official instrument or communique. BBC records the same dated act independently.

## Significance

The path is [household purchasing power](/drivers/household-purchasing-power): a completed precept rise is a dated local-tax cost.

## What is established and what is not

Established: a February 2024 GMCA agreement of the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept.

Not established: a unique later crime coefficient from that meeting, or that every borough billed the same pound amount.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Borough leaders voted. Billing authorities collect.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies GMCA sets the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept, not a later speech about GMCA sets the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. GMCA sets the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept on 2024-02-09 is not a licence to treat every later Greater Manchester Combined Authority communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor decree exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average GMCA sets the 2024/25 mayoral and police precept into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He chairs GMCA. Borough leaders voted. Billing authorities collect. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series. Parliament, the King, TfGM, GMCA boroughs, the NHS, and foreign counterparties share specific files. Allegation is not a completed judgment. A by-election is not a general election. A bus franchise is not a unique CPI coefficient. A GOV.UK profile is not a delivered poverty path.
