Department for Communities and Local Government written question – answered at on 23 October 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what the budget of the troubled families programme will be for (a) 2017-18, (b) 2018-19 and (c) 2019-2020.
The national Troubled Families Programme is driving better ways of working around complex families with multiple high-cost problems - improving outcomes for individuals in those families, reducing their dependency on services, and delivering better value for taxpayers. More than 185,000 of the families who most need help are already being worked with as part of the current programme. Almost 53,000 families have already made significant and sustained progress on all of the problems identified, or reached continuous employment, with 3 years of the programme left to run. The budget for the programme for 2017-18 is £239 million; for 2018-19 £180 million; and for 2019-20 £180 million.
