Jim McMahon – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Communities and Local Government

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jim McMahon on 2016-07-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, how many local authorities to date have submitted efficiency plans in order to qualify for a multi-year financial settlement.

Mr Marcus Jones

Since the announcement of the multi-year settlement offer in December 2015 we have recorded interest from over 125 councils.

Councils have until 14 October 2016 to apply to accept the offer of a multi-year settlement and submit their efficiency plan.
