<p>The Treasury works closely with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural
Affairs, as well as the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, to
consider issues of funding for protection of green spaces and the environment. Local
authorities are responsible for determining how they spend their budgets as they are
best placed to assess the needs of their community, including those relating to green
spaces. Over the five year Spending Review period (from 2015-16 to 2019-20) councils
will have access to more than £200 billion to spend on local services.</p><p> </p>
