Revenue support grant (RSG) figures cannot be considered in isolation in this context, because the amounts payable depend upon the amounts of redistributed national non-domestic rates (NNDR) that an authority receives. Both RSG and NNDR are therefore included in the following table. Grant figures are not consistent between years because of changes in function.
