	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/05/2019 answer text <p>The Troubled Families Programme is designed to support families with complex problems, including promoting family stability and reducing parental conflict. Funding for the programme is not ring-fenced and we do not collect information about spending on specific services such as marriage support. This funding flexibility allows upper tier local authorities and their partners to decide how best to deliver the programme in their own area, according to local need and priorities. Up to £920 million has been made available for the programme from 2015-2020. In addition, my department has worked closely with DWP to make sure delivery of the programme is coordinated with the Reducing Parental Conflict Programme, for which up to £39 million has been made available.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 13/05/2019 14:57:38 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
