The government is undertaking a ‘Fair Funding Review’ in conjunction with councils. The aim of this review is to propose a new system for allocating funding between councils, which will be based on updated and improved methods for estimating councils’ differing revenue-raising capacities and differing spending needs. The IFS and CIPFA hosted a roundtable on 12th September 2018 to discuss some of the big questions the review needs to address and tricky issues it needs to contend with. This presentation, which kicked off the roundtable, sets out the key findings from recent IFS research on the Fair Funding Review which speaks to these issues.
