answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/05/2022 answer text <p>The Local Government Finance Settlement makes an additional £3.7 billion available to councils. As part of this settlement, local authorities have an additional £1 billion for social care in 2022/23. Councils also have access to unring-fenced grants, including the 2022/23 Services Grant and from council tax. Local authorities are best placed to determine how this additional funding can be used to plan care and support for the local population. However, we expect local authorities to take into account factors which affect the cost of providing care, such as increased insurance costs, when setting fees.</p> answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan question first answered 20/05/2022 10:27:13 answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan previous answer version 1457 answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/10/2019 answer text <p>Setting executive pay is a matter for a charity’s trustees to determine, acting in the best interests of their charity. In doing so the charity trustees need to consider a number of factors, including securing value for money for the charity, and the impact of their decisions on public trust. The Charity Commission for England and Wales requires charities to include information on the number of staff receiving remuneration in excess of £60,000, in their Annual Return. This information will be published in income bands on the charity register. The Charity Commission also requires charities to include information on the remuneration of their highest paid staff member. It will use this data to make a study of pay in charities and will publish its findings, once that work is complete.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Loughborough answering member printed Nicky Morgan grouped question UIN 745 question first answered 22/10/2019 18:16:52 answering member 4027 label Biography information for Baroness Morgan of Cotes
