Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government on the effect of changes in local government funding on resources available to voluntary sector organisations in the 2021-22 financial year.

The Secretary of State regularly meets with my cabinet colleagues to discuss a broad range of issues. Future funding decisions remain subject to the Comprehensive Spending Review (CSR) which was launched by the Chancellor in July. The Review, which will be published in the autumn, will set out the government’s spending plans for the parliament.
