HC Deb 01 July 1996 vol 280 c289W
Mrs. Peacock

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what was the amount of grant for Kirklees metropolitan council for the education revenue budget for each year since 1979–80. [34798]

Mrs. Gillan

[holding answer 27 June 1996]: It is not possible to identify a portion of revenue support grant for the education revenue budget since RSG is not hypothecated to particular services. Details of the education standard spending assessment for Kirklees from 1990–91 to 1996–97 are set out in the following list. The previous system of local government finance that applied before 1990–91 was different in structure and coverage from the current system and comparable figures are therefore not available.

  • 1990–91: £128.823 million
  • 1991–92: £148.129 million
  • 1992–93: £157.647 million
  • 1993–94: £140.873 million
  • 1994–95: £138.275 million
  • 1995–96: £136.679 million
  • 1996–97: £141.523 million
