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
