<p>On 18 December 2023, the <em>Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities
(DLUHC) </em>published the Provisional Local Government Financial Settlement 2024/25.
The settlement sets out that standalone Fire and Rescue Authorities in England will
see an increase in core spending power of £79.1m (4.7%) when compared to 2023/24.
This Settlement will be followed by the usual period of consultation, to which I would
encourage the sector to respond.</p><p>Funding for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service
is a matter for the Scottish Government.</p>
