Notes:

1. All figures are rounded to the nearest £100,000. Grant as calculated under the Local Government Finance Report (England). This includes the Metropolitan Special Payment, and the effect of floors and scaling.

2. From 2006-07 funding for pensions and security funding became specific grants, and no longer part of general grant.

3. Figures for the City of London are excluded because these are allocated to the Common Council of the City of London as a whole in respect of all its functions. The city is grouped with education authorities for floors and scaling purposes.
