Rate Support Grant

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish in the Official Report a table showing for each of the years 1978–79 to 1982–83 (a) the national standard amount per capita used in the calculation of resources element of rate support grant, both as originally estimated and as finally determined, and (b) for each local authority, its standard penny rate product and actual penny rate product.

Conclusive calculations of the elements of rate support grant have not been made for the years 1978–79 onwards; the available figures are set out in the following tables:
