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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, when the Government plans to publish 2021-22 funding, grants and council tax principles for councils.

Decisions about 2021-22 funding, grants and council tax principles are part of the Spending Review.

In line with the recommendations of the Hudson Review, we will aim to publish the provisional settlement on or around the 5 December, and the final settlement no later than 31 January. The final dates will depend on the timing of the Spending Review.
