§ Sir Wyn RobertsCapital resources for Welsh local authorities, including those allocated to education authorities are distributed mainly by means of formulae which have been endorsed by the local authority associations. They are not hypothecated to particular services and are not subject to bids. At the all-Wales level I set the total assumed gross expenditure for education in 1990–91 at £53.7 million. The latest available projection, at October 1990, by local authorities of their planned spending was £49.3 million.
