Funding for children\u2019s services is made available through the Local Government Finance Settlement. The department is in the final year of a multi-year settlement deal worth over £200 billion in the five years to 2020.<\/p>

At the Autumn Budget 2018, the government made £410 million available to local authorities, in 2019/20, for adult and children social care. The government also announced £84 million in targeted, evidence-based interventions which will transform services to reduce demand, saving money for local authorities but most importantly, improving the quality of services for our most vulnerable children.<\/p>

The government will continue to work closely with the sector to consider long-term children\u2019s services funding as part of the upcoming 2019 Spending Review.<\/p>

The Government takes the safety of children and staff in schools very seriously. In the unfortunate event that a school has suffered damage as a result of a fire and requires rebuilding, soil contamination surveys would be expected to be undertaken as part of the feasibility study for the replacement buildings.<\/p>

<\/p>

Schools also have responsibilities under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (2005) to have fire safety management plans in place. These should include risk assessments, which must be updated following any fire incident or any significant change to buildings or operations.<\/p>

<\/p>

More specifically, in relation to Grenfell, the Communities Secretary has set up a multi-agency expert group which includes the Environment Agency, Public Health England, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and NHS England to make sure soil surveying around Grenfell Tower is comprehensive. The analysis from this survey work will be made available to the public.<\/p>

Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is claimed by people with a range of health conditions and disabilities, many of which are degenerative or life limiting.<\/p>

<\/p>

All benefit claims can be made under the special rules for people who are terminally ill which will mean that they are fast tracked. These are currently being cleared within 6 working days for new claimants to PIP. The Department would encourage all claimants with a terminal illness to let the department know and to apply using the special rules.<\/p>

The cause of death of PIP claimants is not collated centrally by the Department.<\/p>

<\/p>

Over 3.6 million applications to PIP were made between April 2013 and 30th April 2018. Of these:<\/p>
