§ Mr. Whiteheadasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish the reports of the expenditure groups involved in the build-up of information about local authority expenditure for the 1981–82 rate support grant.
§ Mr. KingThe expenditure group reports are compiled each year on a confidential basis by representatives of the local authority associations and officials of the Government Departments involved. They are therefore not suitable for publication.
