§ Mr. MilburnTo ask the Secretary of State for environment what plans he has to freeze the area cost adjustment factor for future years' local Government funding.
§ Mr. Robin SquireWe have no such plans. The method of calculating area cost adjustment factors is being reviewed, as part of a general review of standard spending assessments, in consultation with local authority representatives. Proposals for 1994–95 will be announced later in the year.
