§ Ms Estelle MorrisMy right hon. Friend has regular discussions with the Deputy Prime Minister about these issues as part of the current review of local authority grant distribution. As you might expect, the future of education funding is an important part of the review, since education accounts for around 40 per cent. of local authority revenue expenditure. We expect to publish a Green Paper later this summer, which will set out a range of options for debate.
