HC Deb 13 July 1983 vol 45 c352W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will itemise the £32 million per year recurrent funding of the Inner London education authority referred to in the Under-Secretary of State's answer on 5 July, Official Report, c. 147.

The exact composition of the £32 million varied from year to year but in each case it was made up of the same four items. The breakdown for 1981–82 at 1979 prices is as follows:

£ million

Grant to cover the salaries of certain careers service staff dealing with unemployed young people 0.2
Grant towards the cost of certain staff engaged in the education of Commonwealth immigrants 7.4
Total 32.6
