To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what plans he has to launch a second phase of the local sustainability fund.

Mr Rob Wilson

The Local Sustainability Fund will support 265 small-to-medium sized organisations, providing vital services to vulnerable and disadvantage people, helping them to secure and enhance those services.

These include offering training to improving fundraising practice, growing the social investment market and ensuring strong leadership and governance.
