§ Mr. Nigel JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list for each education authority in England the standard spending assessment for education per pupil, the actual spending per pupil, the cash difference and the percentage of education SSA this difference represents for the last three years for which figures are available.
§ Mr. Robin Squire[holding answer 21 January 1993]: The standard spending assessment for education consists of five sub-blocks, only three of which concern pupils— primary, secondary and post-16. It is not possible to provide expenditure figures on a basis which would allow comparison with these three elements.
