(2) if she will list for each local education authority in England (a) the education standard spending assessment, (b) the general school budget, (c) the potential school budget and (d) the general school budget expressed as a percentage of its standard spending assessment for 1996–97; and if she will make a statement. [35850]

Mr. Robin Squire

The following table provides the information requested. The entries for general schools budget and potential schools budget have been derived from the local management of schools budget statements produced in respect of LEA—maintained schools under section 42 of the Education Reform Act 1988, and therefore excludes expenditure, recouped from LEAs, on grant-maintained schools.
