HC Deb 17 December 1970 vol 808 c445W
Mr. Skinner

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the average rate fund subsidy for all Scottish local authorities and all local authorities with unemployment over 7 per cent., respectively, expressed in percentage terms of total housing revenue income.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

In 1968–69, the last year for which the figure is available, 37 per cent. of the housing expenditure of Scottish local authorities was met by rate fund contributions. Unemployment percentages are not available for individual local authorities.
