answer text <p>Income from the Victim Surcharge contributes to the Ministry of Justices’ Victim and Witness Budget (“the Budget”). This budget is used to fund Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) who commission local support services for victims, and nationally commissioned support services including the National Homicide Service, Rape Support Centres, and the Court Based Witness Service. Income from the Victim Surcharge is forecast into the Budget at the beginning of each financial year. However, actual income raised from the Surcharge will fluctuate each year (depending on the amount imposed and collection rates). Should revenue raised from the Surcharge go above the forecast amount, the excess is put towards compensating victims through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme.</p><p> </p><p>Overall amounts are set out in the table below:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Financial Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong> Victim Surcharge (VS) Collected *</strong><strong><strong>[1]</strong></strong></p></td><td><p><strong>VS contribution to the Victim and Witness Budget*</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Overall Victim and Witness Budget*</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010/11</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£48m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011/12</p></td><td><p>£10m</p></td><td><p>£10m</p></td><td><p>£48m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£50m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>£<ins class="ministerial">20</ins><del class="ministerial">19</del>m</p></td><td><p>£<ins class="ministerial">20</ins><del class="ministerial">19</del>m</p></td><td><p>£57m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">5</ins><del class="ministerial">4</del>m</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">5</ins><del class="ministerial">4</del>m</p></td><td><p>£86m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>£28m</p></td><td><p>£18m</p></td><td><p>£92m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016/17</p></td><td><p>£31m</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">7</ins><del class="ministerial">6</del>m</p></td><td><p>£96m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017/18</p></td><td><p>£35m</p></td><td><p>£31m</p></td><td><p>£97m</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>*The amounts listed in the table have been rounded to the nearest £1<del class="ministerial">0</del>m.</p>

answer text <p>Table A attached sets out the total funding the Youth Justice Board (YJB) has given to local authorities in each year from 2009/10 to 2017/18 as published in the 2017/18 annual youth justice statistics (published totals for 2018/19 are not yet available). Table B breaks this down by local authority. The majority of this funding helps support the day-to-day business of Youth Offending Teams (YOTs), but it also includes some discrete additional grants for specific projects or initiatives, for example funding for restorative justice. The annual recorded value of the additional grants is set out in Table C.</p><p> </p><p>Due to a change in reporting processes the additional grants given in 2014/15 and 2015/16 were not included in the published totals in the 2017/18 youth justice statistics. The totals for these years therefore differ between Table A (where the additional grants are not included) and Table B (where they are included).</p> more like this
