The Barnett formula applies to all increases or decreases to Departmental Expenditure Limits (DEL), including when budgets change in relation to funding for Fire and Rescue Authorities.<\/p>
<\/p>
Fire and Rescue Authorities in England receive funding through the Local Government Finance Settlement. Part of this funding comes from DEL agreed at the Spending Review and the Barnett formula has been applied in the usual way. Additionally, Fire and Rescue Funding is raised through council tax precepts, which is council tax funding ring-fenced for Fire and Rescue Authorities. The Barnett formula does not apply to spending financed by council tax.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4780", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Laura Trott"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Sevenoaks"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Laura Trott"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-02-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-02-06T17:54:45.647Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-01-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Fire and Rescue Services: Finance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 21 December 2023 to Question 7211 on Fire and Rescue Services Finance, what Barnett consequentials arise as a result of additional funding support for Fire and Rescue Authorities in England.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4488", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Martyn Day"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Linlithgow and East Falkirk"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Martyn Day"} ], "uin" : "11830"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1678390", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1678390/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
On 18 December 2023, the 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> Funding for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service is a matter for the Scottish Government.<\/p>"}
