Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Finance – in the Senedd at 2:16 pm on 20 June 2018.
Well, Llywydd, we are in a period where we are all under pressure from the Westminster cuts, and I acknowledge the fact that people in the local authorities are coping with an exceptionally difficult situation. As a Government, we have worked hard to attempt to give local authorities funding. There was no cut in cash terms in this financial year, and I will continue, with the Cabinet Secretary responsible for local government, to work hard together to prepare the budget for the next financial year.
