Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of implications for his policies on the design of the Shared Prosperity Fund of the report entitled, Communities in Charge, published by Locality.

Following our departure from the European Union, the Government will create the UK Shared Prosperity Fund to support those parts of our country whose economies are furthest behind.

Decisions on the quantum of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund are due to be taken following Spending Review.
