Asked by: Antony Higginbotham (Conservative - Burnley)

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

What steps his Department is taking to support towns.

Answered by Robert Jenrick - Shadow Secretary of State for Justice

This Government’s £3.6 billion Towns Fund will support an initial 100 Town Deals, unleashing towns’ economic potential and sharing prosperity across the country. We are forming a Towns Hub to make Whitehall work for towns and communities and have provided places with over £16 million capacity funding – to prepare their plans and secure up to £25 million each.

We will be investing in town centres and high streets to help them evolve – with more housing, safer streets, culture and transport to make them more accessible.
