Pay for most frontline workforces is set through an independent Pay Review Body (PRB) process.

The Government values the expert advice of the PRBs and accepted their headline recommendations in full for the 2023-24 pay round, leading to some of the highest public sector pay uplifts in three decades.

At Spending Review 2021, funding was allocated for the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund to the former Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and the Barnett formula was applied.<\/p>

<\/p>

At spending reviews, the Barnett formula is applied to changes in each UK government department\u2019s DEL budget with\u202fthe Barnett consequentials that arise then added to the devolved administrations\u2019 baseline block grants. Because the Barnett formula is not applied to changes in funding for all the individual programmes within a UK government department\u2019s DEL budget, the Barnett consequentials associated with these individual programmes, such as the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund, cannot be identified.<\/p>

<\/p>

At Autumn Statement 2022, the Chancellor announced £6 billion of funding to go towards energy efficiency policies in the next Spending Review period.<\/p>

Our Covid-19 interventions helped millions of people and businesses through the worst effects of the pandemic. The Government prioritised getting money to those who needed it, with the schemes designed to minimise fraud while not unnecessarily delaying payments.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government has created the Public Sector Fraud Authority (PSFA), with £24.7 million of new funding in the current SR period to support public bodies and departments to better understand and reduce the impact of fraud.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government also invested over £100 million over two years in the Taxpayer Protection Taskforce to combat fraud in the HMRC support schemes. Up to the end of September, HMRC has recovered overpayments or prevented payments being made of claims worth over £1.6 billion. HMRC is still committed to the recovery of Covid-19 support scheme error and fraud.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government is also committed to bearing down on fraud in the Covid Loan Schemes. £13.2 million has been allocated to the National Investigation Service over three years to double their investigative capacity on Bounce Back Loans and fund enforcement activity. £10.9 million has been allocated to the British Business Bank over three years to boost their counter fraud and assurance programme.<\/p>
