HC Deb 21 May 1986 vol 98 cc193-4W
25. Mr. Allan Roberts

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what information his Department has about the level of services and rate levels in Sefton in relation to the level of employment in the area over the past seven years.

Mrs. Rumbold

Of the five Merseyside district councils, Sefton provides major services at the least cost per head, has consistently levied the lowest local rate poundage, and has the lowest level of unemployment.
