HC Deb 16 June 1988 vol 135 c186W
Mr. Ashdown

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information is available to him as to the number and proportion of schools that have staff in post at a total salary cost greater than the pro rata amount of the local authority's salary budget for schools apportioned between schools according to pupil numbers; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Dunn

Such information could be extracted from the Department's administrative records only at disproportionate cost.
