HC Deb 17 July 1989 vol 157 cc38-9W
Mr. Win Griffiths

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if, pursuant to his answers to the hon. Member for Bridgend of 11 July, he will list the amounts requested by each local education authority under each heading in the table.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

Local education authorities were notified in Welsh Office circular 33/88 of the indicative expenditure in respect of which they could expect to receive grant support under the scheme in 1989–90. The circular asked the LEAs to provide details of their proposed expenditure on in-service teacher training in 1989–90 before the final allocations, as shown in my reply of 11 July, were announced in the formal Welsh Office allocation letter of 27 January 1989. Details of each LEA's proposed expenditure under each category are shown in the table. Authorities are free to spend more on in-service teacher training than the amounts specified as eligible for specific grant under the scheme.
