HC Deb 23 July 1970 vol 804 c216W
92. Mr. Adam Hunter

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will increase the domestic element of the rate support grant in Scotland for the financial year 1970–71.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

The domestic element of the rate support grant for 1970–71, as determined by the Rate Support Grant (Scotland) Order, 1969, may be varied only by an Increase Order. The usual time for consideration of such an order is in the autumn.
