Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how much funding the Troubled Families programme will receive in the 2019 Spending Round.

I am pleased to confirm that the Troubled Families Programme will continue for 2020-21 as part of the one-year spending round, ensuring that more families get access to the vital, early support they need to overcome complex problems such as anti-social behaviour, mental health issues or domestic violence. This was announced in HM Treasury’s spending round document. We will be communicating the detail of the funding breakdown as soon as possible.
