<p>I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to the hon. Member for Bolton South
East (Yasmin Qureshi) on 17 November, PQ 213988.</p><p>The consultation on how local
welfare provision should be funded in 2015/16 closed on 21 November. The Government
are analysing the responses, alongside the review by the Department for Work and Pensions
into existing provision. The Government will make a decision based on this analysis
in time for the provisional local government finance settlement in December 2014.</p>
