Mr. Michael J. FosterTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions (1) how many submissions were received by his Department(a) in total and (b) from Worcestershire to the consultation paper on local government finance; [148891]
(2) how many schools in Worcestershire submitted responses to the local government finance Green Paper. [148892]
729W
§ Ms Beverley HughesWe received 16,321 consultation responses in sufficient time to include them in the analysis of responses to the local government finance Green Paper. 14,402 of these were part of a campaign by the Fair Education Funding Forum (F40). Many of these were from schools and parents in Worcestershire. Further analysis of the responses by geographical location is not feasible as some of the addresses are unclear and such analysis could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
Mr. Michael J. FosterTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will rank, in descending order, each local authority in the West Midlands on the basis of wealth per head of population. [148889]
