Tariff allocations in Wales are all paid at fiscal events rather than quarterly. These amounts will be paid from DLUHC 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 includes a reconciliation adjustment to account for the movement of guests rematched across nation borders during FY 2023/24. 

The table of allocations shows two councils receiving nil tariff for the quarter. This is a result of having no new arrivals in their area during Quarter 4.

Where councils have a negative allocation, these councils have adjusted their claims to account for claims made in error in previous quarters.

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.

Included in the allocations table above is £41,300 Tariff and £9,800 in thankyou payments claimed by the Welsh Government for arrivals under Wales’ Super Sponsorship route for Quarter 4. However, the FY23/24 reconciliation resulted in a negative figure overall which will be recovered at the next fiscal event.

In addition to the allocations set out above, we have allocated a total of £58,794 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.
