A breakdown of all the funding provided to the devolved administrations since the 2015 Spending Review can be found in the Block Grant Transparency publication from July 2020 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/block-grant-transparency-july-2020).

In addition to the £6bn of resource funding in relation to Covid-19 allocated at Main Estimates 2020-21, and therefore included in the Block Grant Transparency publication, the UK government has guaranteed the devolved administrations will receive at least an additional £6.7bn this year.
