HC Deb 07 December 1981 vol 14 cc327-8W
Mr. Kaufman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what are the allocations for the partnership and programme authorities under the urban programme for each of the authorities listed in the Parliamentary reply on 22 October, Official Report, c. 187–8, for each of the years 1980–81 and 1981–82 in comparable prices.

Mr. King

I regret that the information is not available in precisely the form requested, but total allocations to partnerships and programme authorities, at estimated 1981–82 outturn prices, are set out in the following table. In each case most of the resources will have been allocated to district or borough councils, but the figures include some expenditure by counties, GLC, ILEA and health authorities.
