HC Deb 28 October 1975 vol 898 cc408-9W
Mr. MacGregor

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he intends to impose cash limits on the combined total of rate support grant and RSG increase orders in 1976–77; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John Silkin

I shall shortly be discussing with the Consultative Council on Local Government Finance details of how cash limits can be applied to the rate support giant for 1976–77. Increase orders for previous years will in any event not be subject to cash limits.
