HC Deb 30 March 1988 vol 130 c507W
Mr. Bill Walker

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will announce any change to the 1987–88 cash limit for local authority non-housing capital expenditure.

Mr. Rifkind

The 1987–88 cash limit figure has been increased from £437.8 million to £443.8 million to reflect the £6 million in supplementary capital allocations issued in December to local authorities to assist with the capital costs of implementing the community charge.
