The decision is to approve final hourly funding rates paid in 2023/24 to providers of the funded early entitlement for two, three and four year olds under the early years funding formula. These hourly rates could not be agreed at the date of the Cabinet report because at that point insufficient data on take up of the funded early entitlement was available to determine affordability and the DfE had not yet published the rates at which local authorities would be funded for early years for 2023/24.
