	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/12/2015 answer text <p>The Government is clear that decisions on how money should be spent in the local area are best made by local authorities. Local Government spending power is therefore not ringfenced. This allows local authorities the freedom to prioritise and make their own decisions on spending. Table 2.17 on page 100 of the Spending Review shows a cash terms increase in local authority spending. This includes a £1.5 billion grant especially for social care within Local Government DEL and the Office for Budget Responsibility’s assessment of the increase likely to be raised through the social care precept within Locally Financed Expenditure.</p><br /> answering member printed Lord O'Neill of Gatley question first answered 23/12/2015 10:34:24 answering member 4536 label Biography information for Lord O'Neill of Gatley
