HC Deb 15 July 1988 vol 137 cc367-8W
Mr. Worthington

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will provide a detailed breakdown for the years 1982–83 to 1990–91, by nature of item and functional area of charge, of the receipts to his programme classified as charges for the purposes of the public expenditure survey.

Mrs. Rumbold

[holding answer 7 July 1988]: The figures in the table relate to receipts in respect of programme expenditure; receipts in respect of running costs expenditure are not included. They do not take into account the changes in funding responsibility, for example, in the case of polytechnics, which will take place after the Education Reform Bill is enacted.
