HC Deb 04 March 1994 vol 238 cc6-7W
Mr. Hinchliffe

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what account has been taken in standard spending assessment calculations for 1994–95 of income from charging for personal social services other than residential care; and what income was assumed from these charges for each local authority.

Mr. Baldry

The method by which the standard spending assessment, SSA, for residential care services for the elderly is calculated includes an explicit element relating to income from charges. The methods by which the other personal social services SSAs are calculated do not include such an element.
