The Troubled Families Programme is designed to support families with complex problems, including promoting family stability and reducing parental conflict. Funding for the programme is not ring-fenced and we do not collect information about spending on specific services such as marriage support. This funding flexibility allows upper tier local authorities and their partners to decide how best to deliver the programme in their own area, according to local need and priorities. Up to £920 million has been made available for the programme from 2015-2020. In addition, my department has worked closely with DWP to make sure delivery of the programme is coordinated with the Reducing Parental Conflict Programme, for which up to £39 million has been made available.<\/p>"}

In March 2018, the Government published the Integrated Communities Strategy Green Paper which set out our ambitious goal to build strong integrated communities where people - whatever their background - live, work, learn and socialise together, based on shared rights, responsibilities and opportunities.
On 9 February 2019, we published the Integrated Communities Action Plan alongside the government\u2019s response to the consultation on the Green Paper. The Action Plan builds upon the proposals set out in the Green Paper and commits the government to deliver over 70 policy actions by the end of this Parliament to create socially and economically stronger, more confident and integrated communities.
These actions are targeted to support people in the most segregated communities regardless of their faith or ethnic background so they can progress and make the most of the opportunities of living in modern Britain.<\/p>"}

The Government is continuing business rates relief for solar microgeneration plant and machinery of less than 50kW. These arrangements would also apply under the Smart Export Guarantee as proposed. The current relief provides a 100 per cent business rates exemption for qualifying solar plant and machinery between the installation of the equipment and the next revaluation for business rates planned in 2021.<\/p>"}

Decisions on whether to grant discretionary business rates reliefs are taken by individual local authorities, and the Government does not hold data on whether local authorities award that relief to childcare providers.<\/p>
Since Budget 2016 the Government has introduced business rates measures in England worth £13 billion over the next five years. This includes switching the indexation of business rates from the retail price index to the consumer price index, representing a cut in rates to all ratepayers, including childcare providers, worth over £6 billion over the next five years. The Government has also doubled the threshold for 100 per cent small business rate relief meaning that 655,000 businesses including many childcare providers now pay no business rates at all.<\/p>
The Government monitors the childcare provider market closely through a range of research projects and plans to spend around £3.5 billion on our early education entitlements this year alone.<\/p>"}
