answer text: Rather than receiving funding for specific programmes or policy areas, the devolved administrations receive block grants from the UK Government. It is generally for the devolved administrations to decide how to allocate their block grant funding in devolved areas. All changes to devolved administration block grants are published in the Block Grant Transparency document, which is due to be updated shortly. The latest publication is here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/block-grant-transparency-december-2021 The devolved administrations are well-funded to deliver all their devolved responsibilities, each receiving over 20% more funding per person than equivalent UK Government spending in other parts of the UK. This is around 25% more for the Scottish Government and around 20% more for the Welsh Government and NI Executive.
