HC Deb 01 April 1987 vol 113 c556W
Mr. Pike

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he now proposes to make any changes in the factors used to compile local authority grant-related expenditure assessement.

Mr. Chope

Grant-related expenditure assessments (GREAs) for 1987–88 were approved by the House on 25 March. We have begun consultation with the local authority associations and preliminary work on the 1988–89 GREAs.
