HC Deb 11 February 1981 vol 998 cc342-3W
34. Mr. Norman Hogg

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the responses he has received from Scottish local authorities to the rate support grant settlement for 1981–82.

Mr. Rifkind

Representations from the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities about the settlement were referred to in the course of the debate on the Rate Support Grant (Scotland) Order on 21 January. I have nothing to add to what I told the House on that occasion.
