Communities and Local Government written question – answered at on 30 January 2007.
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government if her Department will reform the Revenue Support Grant Formula to take into account the cost pressures associated with containing a busy airport or port.
We have no current plans to review the funding formula to take specific account of the cost pressures associated with containing a busy airport or port. Formula Grant (which includes Revenue Support Grant) can be used by councils for any purpose, provided their statutory obligations are met. I note that Hillingdon's formula grant will increase by 4.4 per cent. in 2007-08.
