Mr. Waldegrave

The figures requested are as following. They are as estimated by the Secretary of State for purposes of the 1984–85 grant related expenditure assessments. Where the E7 calculation requires separate treatment of the dwellings transferred from the GLC, the figures relating to these dwellings are given separately. For other items, the figures relate to all dwellings.
