Mr. Chisholm

(2) if he will list the resource planning assumptions for each council in Scotland for its 1996–97 housing revenue account capital budget. [10715]

Mr. Robertson

No decisions have been taken yet on the housing revenue account capital budget borrowing consent levels for individual councils in Scotland for 1996–97. These will depend on the final estimates of capital receipts which authorities are expected to achieve in 1996–97 which are currently the subject of consultation.

The information on resource planning assumptions for each council in Scotland for 1996–97 is set out in the table.
