<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>
