answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/03/2018 answer text <p>Life expectancy is higher now than it has ever been, and is generally increasing in most areas. This Government has made available over £200 billion to councils between 2015/16 and 2019/20 to invest in services including those that support improved life expectancy, such as public health and social care, and we are currently conducting a review of councils’ relative needs to deliver an up-to-date, responsive distribution methodology that will ensure future funding goes to the right places.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 20/03/2018 16:57:10 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
