HC Deb 04 February 1991 vol 185 c40W
Mr. Fraser

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what assumptions he makes about the need for the provision of nursery places in Lambeth in the proposed revenue support grant settlement.

Mr. Key

Allowance is made for nursery provision within the standard spending assessment for social services for children. The assessment for Lambeth is calculated in the same way as for other authorities, on the basis of the formula set out in paragraph 3.19 of the Revenue Support Grant Distribution Report (England) as amended by the Revenue Support Grant Distribution (Amendment) Report (England) debated and approved by the House on 29 January.
