Tariff allocations in Wales are all paid at fiscal events rather than quarterly. These amounts will be paid from MHCLG to the Welsh Government in early 2025, who will distribute funding to councils.

Funding for thank you payments for individual sponsors in Wales is provided quarterly in arrears. This is paid direct to councils in Wales using the financial assistance power (s.50/51) of the UK Internal Market Act.

The table of allocations shows three councils receiving nil tariff for the quarter. This is a result of having no new arrivals in their area during Quarter 1.

Welsh Government have a negative allocation for thank you payments, they have adjusted their claim to account for claims made in error in previous quarters under Wales’ Super Sponsorship route which will be recovered at the next fiscal event.

The number of thank you payments may be less than the number of sponsoring households due to delays in authorities making thank you payments, or sponsors not accepting thank you payments.

In addition to the allocations set out above, we have allocated a total of £16,037 to Wales in funding for eligible minors who were placed in local authority care as a result of a sponsorship breakdown or safeguarding concern, or who have left local authority care in line with published guidance.

The data in this publication will not match the weekly data published on the Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme.This is because the data is collected over a different period of time, and this data is returned directly by councils whereas the Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme data is management information from operational systems.
