§ Mr. Hargreavesasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what was the total supplementary capital allocation issued to those local authorities which exercised restraint on capital expenditure in 1984–85.
§ Mr. Kenneth BakerThe total issued up to 18 June is £37,566,000 to 161 authorities. A final total will not be known until all local authorities' expenditure returns have been received and analysed.
§ Mr. Ken Hargreavesasked the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) how much supplementary capital allocation remains to be made to those local authorities who exercised restraint on capital expenditure in 1984–85 following the supplementary allocation of 5 per cent. of the aggregate of the basic allocations for 1985–86 for the five service blocks covered by the main national cash limits;
(2) how many local authorities exercised restraint, in accordance with his request, on capital expenditure in 1984–85.
§ Mr. Kenneth BakerThis information is not yet available, since the expenditure returns from some local authorities have still to be received and analysed.
The supplementary allocations apply to the five service blocks covered by the main cash limit for local authority capital expenditure in England.
