answer text <p>Full details of the councils' funding are detailed in the Local Government Finance Settlement, which is published on the Government's website at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/core-spending-power-final-local-government-finance-settlement-2017-to-2018" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/core-spending-power-final-local-government-finance-settlement-2017-to-2018</a></p><p>Funding for children's social care is not ring fenced because this allows local authorities, who are independent of central Government, to manage their budgets in line with local priorities. We believe it is important that councils are able to set the policy agenda and target spending to match.</p><p> </p> more like this
