Revenue Budget for Scottish Fire and Rescue Service: FOI release
Information requested
You asked for the revenue budget provided to the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service in each year since it formed in 2013? What was the revenue budget for each legacy fire service in Scotland before the formation of the single service? If this can't be provided for Fife and Dumfries and Galloway because of provision through local arrangements I completely understand.
Response
I enclose a copy of most of the information you requested.
Some of the information you requested is publicly available on the Scottish Government website and may be of use for viewing future budget information if you require. This can be found here: Scottish Budget - gov.scot (www.gov.scot)
