HC Deb 17 March 1999 vol 327 c663W
Mr. Lidington

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment he has made of the impact on probation service budgets of the Government's changes to ACT; and if he will make a statement. [75913]

Mr. George Howarth

The Comprehensive Spending Review settlement for Local Government includes £130 million in each of the next three years to cover the impact on changes in Advanced Corporation Tax on local authority pension funds. This should be sufficient to ensure that any impact on probation service budgets will be minimal.
