	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/06/2018 answer text <p>As part of our oversight of local government expenditure, we consider the financial stability and service delivery of individual authorities, liaising with other departments, including the Department of Health and Social Care in relation to adult social care. On this basis, we have no immediate concerns on the ability of local authorities to fulfil their statutory duties. We recognise the pressures on local government which is why we have provided an additional £2 billion to adult social care over the three years to 2019-20.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 21/06/2018 16:03:56 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak previous answer version 63773 answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
