PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Future High Streets Fund (9 March 2023)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether his Department intends to increase funding for Local Authorities with successful Future High Street bids agreed in 2021-22 to address the impact of trends in the level of inflation.

Asked by:
Navendu Mishra (Labour)

Answer

The department is continuing to respond to the challenges that inflation presents to our levelling up programmes, working closely with the places affected.

Our project change process gives places flexibility to re-scope projects and move funding within their Future High Streets Fund portfolio, allowing them to adapt to the changing economic climate and ensure that projects remain viable.
