HC Deb 01 November 1976 vol 918 c484W
5. Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether he will adjust the transport supplementary grant to the counties of West Glamorgan and Dyfed to avoid the redundancies in bus personnel threatened by the South Wales Tran sport Company.

Mr. Barry Jones

No. Transport supplementary grant is a block grant related to total accepted expenditure on transport and highways services in any financial year. Within this total the provision to be made for revenue support is entirely a matter for the county councils to determine.
