We have received representations from or on behalf of about 15 local authorities concerning the announcement on 19 December by my right hon. Friend the Minister for Local Government of the rate support grant settlement for 1989–90. Several hon. Members also made representations during the debate on the settlement on 19 January. The House then approved the 1989–90 rate supports grant report and supplementary reports for earlier years.
