HC Deb 27 June 1983 vol 44 c26W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science which local education authorities have a level of expenditure on books and similar equipment which falls below the average for the country as a whole.

Mr. Dunn

Figures for expenditure on books and equipment per school pupil, and per student in certain establishments of further education, by local education authorities have been published by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy in "Education Statistics 1982–83: Estimates", a copy of which is in the Library of the House.
