HC Deb 13 July 1987 vol 119 c321W
Sir Brandon Rhys Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish a table showing such information as he has about how the main cost of public education is financed, respectively, by central, state or local government in each European Economic Community member state.

Mrs. Rumbold

This information is not readily available and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
