FOI Publication Scheme Part 5 - What we spend and how we spend it
The majority of the Fire Authority's funding is provided directly by the government in the form of Revenue Support Grant and Business Rates. The remainder is raised via the precept which forms part of the council tax bills issued by the District Councils. However, South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority only sets its budget after taking account of the government's regulations on capping, the reserves it has available and any income that it generates.
