Spending Power is a measure of resources available to a local authority to fund its services. It includes Settlement Funding Assessment (business rates baseline funding level plus Revenue Support Grant), Council Tax and other central government grants.<\/p>
Prior to 2013-14, Formula Grant was non-ring fenced money for local government services. It was funded by central government grant and redistributed business rates. Post 2013-14, Settlement Funding Assessment became the way central government provided local authorities with non-ring fenced funding for local government services.<\/p>
Details of Redbridge Spending Power and the contribution from formula grant or the Settlement Funding Assessment can be found on line at:<\/p>
