The Department for Culture, Media and Sport's for S4C for each financial year from 1997–98 to 2005–06 are:

£millions
Departmental allocation
1997–981 18.4
1998–99 75.1
1999–2000 75.1
2000–01 75.1
2001–02 76.8
2002–03 80.2
2003–04 85.2
2004–05 92.2
2005–06 92.2
1 From January 1998, under the new funding formula introduced by the Broadcasting Act 1996,S4C's annual grant ceased to be paid in full in January each year and became payable in instalments. The budget allocation for 1997–98 therefore covered the period January to March 1998 only.

Departmental allocations for 2006–07 have yet to be determined.

S4Cs statutory grant entitlement is calculated on a calendar year basis and may therefore differ from the Department's allocation for the corresponding financial year.
