Abstract

This submission relates to the following key issues outlined in the Select Committee's terms of reference:

• The approach the Government should take to local government funding as part of the 2020 Spending Review and what the key features of that settlement should be.

• The current financial situation of councils, how this has affected their ability to deliver services and the demand for services, including Adult Social Care.

• What the financial challenges facing councils are as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including lost income and local tax losses.

• What the impact is of another one-year spending review and a further delay to a multi-year settlement and the Fair Funding Review
