answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2014 answer text <p>Through Growth Deals the Government has devolved over £6bn of funding to Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) to invest in the key drivers of growth. While this investment is predominantly capital, up to £303m in 15-16 is revenue funding. LEPs have also secured wider freedoms and flexibilities, which in some cases include additional revenue funding, or more influence over revenue funding streams.
