In the Spending Review 2021 (SR21), the regulators received funding settlements they believed were sufficient to enable them to fulfil their post-EU Exit regulatory responsibilities. FSA, for example, agreed a £122 million budget covering its work in England and committed to maintaining its 2019 headcount levels, with the exception of growth in staff numbers to fulfil its new responsibilities after EU Exit and to directly employ veterinarians.24 Across its full range of responsibilities, including its new role as building safety regulator, HSE is expecting to grow from around 2,500 staff to between 3,000 and 3,500 over the spending review period. It told us that its SR21 settlement was sufficient to enable it to carry out its role.25
