Formula Grant Distribution - A Consultation Paper
- Copy of Written Ministerial Statement by John Healey MP, Minister for Local Government, to the House of Coomons on Tuesday 17 July 2007 (Adobe Acrobat 11kb)
- Formula Grant Distribution - A Consultation Paper
Settlement Working Group (SWG)
This is a Working Group of:
- Departmental officials,
- officials from other Government departments,
- officers from the LGA,
- officers from London Councils,
- representatives of the Local Authority Association Special Interest groups, and
- representatives of the Treasurers Societies
It discusses issues relating to formula grant distribution, in particular potential changes to the 2008/09, 2009/10 and 2010/11 Local Government Finance Settlements.
If you have an issue that you would like raised at SWG then you should in the first instance discuss this with your special interest group representative or your Treasurers Society.
The exemplifications within the papers relate to the 2007/08 Settlement, unless otherwise stated. We have exemplified at Relative Needs Formula, Formula Grant before Floor Damping and Formula Grant after Floor Damping.
Please note that the Formula Grant before Floor Damping level shows the long-term effects of implementing a change, whereas the Formula Grant after Floor Damping shows the potential short-term effects. Please note however that this will not be the actual effects in 2008/09 since we will have new control totals, new data and new floor damping levels.
