Not there yet apparently.
"However, the Tees Valley Local Economic Partnership (LEP) will compete with 19 other urban areas, including Sunderland, for an unknown number of new deals that will go ahead next year.
  And there will be no direct funding reward, merely greater powers to decide how Government grants are spent, at a time when councils are poised to make further cuts."
