Local Government Finance: Birmingham and Solihull
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what the planned funding allocations for (a) Birmingham City Council and (b) Solihull Borough Council are in each year for which figures are available.
Answered by Jim McMahon
As part of the provisional Local Government Finance Settlement on 18 December 2024 the government published the latest Core Spending Power figures which are available here.
Included within the tables are figures for allocations dating back to 2015. Due to changes in the function and financing of local government, comparable data is not available prior to 2015-16.
Funding allocations from future settlements are subject to the outcome of future Spending Reviews. The government is committed to providing a multi-year funding settlement starting in 2026-27.
