HC Deb 23 January 1992 vol 202 c278W
Mr. Tony Banks

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what was the levy imposed on London boroughs by the London residuary body in 1991; and what is the expected levy for the coming year.

Mr. Key

The levy imposed on inner London boroughs for the year 1991–92 was £15.7 million. The LRB has indicated that the levy for the year 1992–93 will be of the order of £35 million to £40 million. This includes a substantial element to cover late rating adjustments, for which the former Inner London education authority had made inadequate provision.
