1. Request
Please provide the amount of funding received from the government for the following tax years: 2020-21; 2021-22; 2022-23.
2. Response
I can confirm that the SIA does hold this information.
There are 2 types of funds that the SIA receives. One is from the Government/Home Office and is known as capital delegation. The second is through a court-issued confiscation order under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA) following successful criminal prosecution proceedings. The SIA receives a portion of the money it recovers via confiscation orders under the Asset Recovery Incentivisation Scheme. This money is distributed by the SIA through its grant for good causes fund.

| 2020-21 | £341,319 | £9,372 |
| 2021-22 | £1,523,373 | £113,007 |
