<p>The Government is committed to ensuring all necessary preparations are made before
the UK’s departure from the EU, for all scenarios, deal or no deal. HM Treasury has
in total allocated over £4.2bn across government to help departments and devolved
administrations prepare for Brexit. Of this, some £2.2bn has been allocated to financial
years that have now past, covering 2016-17 to 2018-19. Individual departments report
on all of their spending to Parliament through their annual reports and accounts,
however aggregate outturn data on EU Exit spending is not available.</p><p> </p><p>Over
£2bn of additional funding has been allocated to the current financial year, 2019-20.
