The precept is calculated based on the Parish or Town Council's assessment of income and expenditure for the following financial year. The funding settlement for principal local authorities takes account of income foregone due to mandatory council tax discounts, including that for full time students.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 05/06/2019 11:28:47 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>On 13 May 2019, we launched a consultation on support for victims of domestic abuse in safe accommodation. This includes proposals for a statutory duty on local authorities in England to provide support. This consultation will help determine the level of funding required to support the new statutory duty. We estimate an early broad annual cost of around £90 million which the Secretary of State communicated to the House of Commons on the 13 May. The full costs will be informed by the consultation and taken into the Spending Review. We will consider any increase in funding for Devolved Administrations under the Barnett methodology once decisions have been taken on how to operate and fund the new duty.</p><p>My officials have discussed proposals for a duty with colleagues in the Welsh Government and will continue to work closely with them.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 05/06/2019 11:26:49 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
