answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2019 answer text <p>The Government is undertaking a review of the relative needs and resources of local authorities in England, with a view to setting fresh baseline funding levels in 2020-21. We are working closely with local government representatives and others to consider the drivers of local authorities’ costs, the resources available locally to fund services, and how we should account for these in a way that draws a more transparent and understandable link between local circumstances and resource allocations.</p><p>In December 2018 the Government published a consultation detailing its interim analysis and conclusions, and which set out its proposed approach to assessing the relative needs and resources of local authorities. We received over 300 responses to this consultation and are considering these responses carefully, before we take further decisions on the shape of the review. This is an ongoing process and as such, the analysis is not yet complete. However, the Government recognises the need for transparency, a key principle of the review, and intends to publish further detail on its proposals in due course.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 11/04/2019 10:58:57 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/04/2019 answer text <p>Although there is no existing assessment of trends in the level of funding for parks and green spaces, MHCLG in partnership with the Parks Action Group has commissioned research from the New Policy Institute, looking at levels of funding by Local Authorities for parks and green spaces. The Department plans to make this information accessible later this year.</p><p>Spending on parks is a matter for local authorities; where local authorities have prioritised the protection and expansion of Green Spaces they have found the funds to do so.</p><p>The Government recognises the value of parks and green spaces in providing vibrant and inclusive locations for communities to socialise, volunteer, work, and exercise. Access to green spaces fosters health, well-being, integration, and social engagement. Government will continue to work with the Parks Sector to help support the sustainability of parks and green spaces.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 11/04/2019 10:59:14 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
