Ms Walley

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will give details of what sums have been allocated in each of the last five years to highway authorities for the repair of principal roads; and what that amount represented as an overall proportion of money allocated to local highway authorities.

Mr. Key

As explained in my answer of 2 February,Official Report, column 756, transport supplementary grant and credit approvals were first allocated for structural maintenance of principal roads forming part of the primary route network in 1992–93 and were extended to cover all principal roads in 1993–94. Allocations for structural maintenance, and the proportion they represent of the total resources allocated under the TSG system, are as follows:
