42 local authorities plan to allocate funding for a quality supplement through their local formula in 2017/18 for three and four year olds. For two year olds, two local authorities plan to fund a quality supplement in 2017/18. Full details on local authority planned budget information can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/section-251-2017-to-2018.

The department will not have local authority planned budget available information for 2018/19 until September 2018.
