	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2019 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><p> </p><p>Reductions in the grant over the past decade have been made alongside a decrease in statutory caseloads and as part of wider savings.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 04/07/2019 15:42:55 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar attachment 1 file name Tables A, B and C.docx title Tables A, B and C
