Mr. Fallon

In 1986–87, school-based spending in north Yorkshire was on average some £1,055 per nursery, primary and secondary school pupil. In 1989–90, the latest year for which information on actual spending is available, the figure was some £1,390. That represents a real terms increase of 9 per cent.
