I am today laying before the Senedd the Local Government Finance Report (No.2\) 2022\-23 (Final Settlement – Police and Crime Commissioners). This sets out the Welsh Government’s component of the Final Police Settlement for police forces in Wales for 2022\-23\. Today’s announcement made by the Home Office publishes the final Police Grant allocations for policing bodies in England and Wales, to ensure that Police and Crime Commissioners are able to set precepts by 1 March.


Policing policy is not devolved and funding for the four Welsh police forces is delivered through a three\-way arrangement involving the Home Office, the Welsh Government and council tax. For 2022\-2023 the total core support for police forces in Wales will be £432\.4 million.


A common needs\-based formula, operated by the Home Office, is used to distribute funding across English and Welsh police forces, and the approach to setting and distributing the Welsh Government’s component of police funding provision is based on a principle of ensuring consistency and fairness across England and Wales.


The Home Office has taken the decision to transfer funding for Special Branch out of the Police Main Grant to the Counter\-Terrorism Policing Grant, in line with 2021\-22 budget. As the total amount being transferred is based on forces’ 2021\-22 budget and will remain at that for 2022\-23, the transfer will have a zero net impact for police forces.


As in previous years, the Home Office has overlaid its needs\-based formula with a floor mechanism. This ensures all police forces in England and Wales can expect to receive an increase in core funding of 5\.9% for 2022\-23, before the adjustment made for the transfer of Special Branch funding, when compared with 2021\-22\.


Following consultation, the figures for the final police settlement remain as I set out in my statement on 16 December on the provisional police settlement.  As I set out in that statement, in 2022\-23, the balance of funding between the Home Office and the Welsh Government will change. The overall level of funding the police receive will not decrease but the proportion of direct Home Office funding will increase. This is purely an administrative change and will not result in any change in overall funding for any police force.


I propose to set the Welsh Government’s contribution to police funding for 2022\-23 at £113\.47 million. The floor funding is provided by the Home Office. The figures are summarised in Tables 1 to 3 of this Statement.


The Local Government Finance Report (No.2\) 2022\-23 is scheduled for debate in the Senedd on 15 February.

Notes:


\[1] Since the 2015 Comprehensive Spending Review, the Home Office has made an annual transfer of funding to the Welsh Government in order for the Welsh Government to deliver its agreed contribution to police funding in Wales. From 2022\-23 onwards, this additional funding will no longer be transferred and will, instead, be delivered by the Home Office through the Police Grant and Top Up Grant. This will result in the Welsh Government contribution to policing reducing by £29\.93 million. This is purely an administrative change and will not result in any change in overall funding for any Police Force.


\[2] This is the amount of police grant set out in section 3 of the Police Grant Report which includes the allocation under 'Principal Formula' and 'Add Rule 1' (columns a and b) plus the amount 'floor funding' that the Home Office has made available.


\[3] Figures for 2022\-23 are shown before the adjustment made for the transfer of Special Branch funding, as outlined in paragraph 4\.8 of the Police Grant Report.

Rwyf heddiw yn gosod gerbron y Senedd Adroddiad Cyllid Llywodraeth Leol (Rhif 2\) 2022\-23 (Setliad Terfynol – Comisiynwyr Heddlu a Throseddu). Mae hwn yn amlinellu elfen Llywodraeth Cymru o Setliad Terfynol yr Heddlu ar gyfer heddluoedd yng Nghymru yn 2022\-23\. Mae’r cyhoeddiad heddiw a wnaed gan y Swyddfa Gartref yn cyhoeddi  Dyraniadau Grant Terfynol yr Heddlu ar gyfer cyrff plismona yng Nghymru a Lloegr, er mwyn sicrhau bydd Comisiynwyr Heddlu a Throseddu yn gallu gosod eu praeseptau erbyn 1 Mawrth.


Nid yw polisi plismona wedi’i ddatganoli a darperir y cyllid ar gyfer pedwar Heddlu Cymru drwy drefniant tair ffordd, sy’n cynnwys y Swyddfa Gartref, Llywodraeth Cymru a’r Dreth Gyngor. Ar gyfer 2022\-2023, bydd cyfanswm y cymorth craidd ar gyfer heddluoedd yng Nghymru yn £432\.4 miliwn.


Mae fformiwla gyffredin sy’n seiliedig ar anghenion yn cael ei gweithredu gan y Swyddfa Gartref i ddosbarthu cyllid ar draws heddluoedd Cymru a Lloegr, ac mae’r dull o bennu a dosbarthu elfen Llywodraeth Cymru o’r ddarpariaeth cyllido heddlu wedi ei seilio ar yr egwyddor o sicrhau cysondeb a thegwch ar draws Cymru a Lloegr.


Mae'r Swyddfa Gartref wedi penderfynu trosglwyddo’r cyllid ar gyfer y Gangen Arbennig allan o Brif Grant yr Heddlu i'r Grant Plismona Gwrthderfysgaeth, yn unol â chyllideb 2021\-22\. Gan fod y cyfanswm sy'n cael ei drosglwyddo yn seiliedig ar gyllideb heddluoedd ar gyfer 2021\-22, a bydd yn parhau felly ar gyfer 2022\-23, ni fydd y trosglwyddiad yn cael unrhyw effaith net ar yr heddluoedd.


Fel mewn blynyddoedd blaenorol, mae’r Swyddfa Gartref wedi defnyddio mecanwaith cyllid gwaelodol ar gyfer ei fformiwla sy'n seiliedig ar anghenion. Mae hyn yn sicrhau y gall pob heddlu yng Nghymru a Lloegr ddisgwyl cael cynnydd o 5\.9% mewn cyllid craidd ar gyfer 2022\-23, cyn yr addasiad a wneir ar gyfer trosglwyddo cyllid y Gangen Arbennig, o'i gymharu â 2021\-22\.


Yn dilyn ymgynghoriad, mae’r ffigurau ar gyfer setliad terfynol yr heddlu yn parhau fel y nodais yn fy natganiad ar 16 Rhagfyr ar setliad dros dro'r heddlu. Fel y nodais yn y datganiad hwnnw, yn 2022\-23, bydd cydbwysedd y cyllid rhwng y Swyddfa Gartref a Llywodraeth Cymru yn newid. Ni fydd gostyngiad yn lefel y cyllid cyffredinol y bydd y heddluoedd yn ei dderbyn ond bydd cyfran y cyllid a dderbyniant yn uniongyrchol oddi wrth y Swyddfa Gartref yn cynyddu. Newid gweinyddol yn unig yw hwn, ac ni fydd yn golygu unrhyw newid yn y cyllid cyffredinol ar gyfer unrhyw heddlu.


Rwy’n awgrymu y dylid pennu cyfraniad Llywodraeth Cymru i gyllid yr heddlu ar gyfer 2022\-23 yn £113\.47 miliwn. Mae’r cyllid gwaelodol yn cael ei darparu gan y Swyddfa Gartref. Mae’r ffigurau wedi’u crynhoi yn Nhablau 1 i 3 y Datganiad hwn.


Disgwylir i Adroddiad Cyllid Llywodraeth Leol (Rhif 2\) 2022\-23 fod yn destun trafodaeth yn y Senedd ar 15 Chwefror.

Nodiadau:


\[1] Ers Adolygiad Cynhwysfawr o Wariant 2015, mae'r Swyddfa Gartref wedi trosglwyddo cyllid yn flynyddol i Lywodraeth Cymru er mwyn i Lywodraeth Cymru fodloni’r cyfraniad y cytunwyd arno ar ei chyfer at gyllid yr heddlu yng Nghymru. O 2022\-23 ymlaen, ni fydd y cyllid ychwanegol hwn yn cael ei drosglwyddo bellach a bydd, yn hytrach, yn cael ei ddarparu gan y Swyddfa Gartref drwy Grant yr Heddlu a'r Grant Atodol. O ganlyniad, bydd gostyngiad o £29\.93 miliwn yng nghyfraniad Llywodraeth Cymru at blismona. Newid gweinyddol yn unig yw hwn, ac ni fydd yn golygu unrhyw newid yn y cyllid cyffredinol ar gyfer unrhyw Heddlu.


\[2] Dyma swm grant yr heddlu a nodir yn adran 3 o Adroddiad Grant yr Heddlu sy’n cynnwys y dyraniad o dan ‘Prif Fformiwla’ ac ‘Ychwanegu Rheol 1’ (colofnau a a b) plws swm y ’cyllid gwaelodol’ y mae’r Swyddfa Gartref wedi’i sicrhau sydd ar gael.


\[3] Dangosir y ffigurau ar gyfer 2022\-23 cyn yr addasiad a wneir ar gyfer trosglwyddo cyllid y Gangen Arbennig, fel y nodir ym mharagraff 4\.8 o Adroddiad Grant yr Heddlu.
