Bellwin Scheme: threshold levels 2021-2022
Calculation of the threshold levels
- Expenditure threshold levels have been applied to the Scheme from its inception on the assumption that local authorities will budget to cover a proportion of the costs of emergency incidents from within internal resources.
- Threshold levels apply to the whole financial year, not to each incident within the financial year.
- The threshold levels will represent 0.2% of a local authority's budgeted net revenue expenditure and, for 2020-2021, are as follows:
