HC Deb 06 March 2003 vol 400 c1192W
Mr. Drew

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister what account is taken in the Supporting People budget for reallocation of funding between those local authorities who choose to place residents in other local authorities for the purposes of residential care. [100541]

Mr. McNulty

Supporting People funding is paid to the authority that is actually contracting to provide Supporting People services in its area, irrespective of Social Services arrangements concerning 'usual' residency.
