Calculation of Adjusted Formula Grant for 2010-11 (£ 144,982,027)
The adjusted formula grant is created to enable like-for-like comparisons between the amount of formula grant an authority would have received in 2010-11, had formula grant in that year covered the same functions for each authority as it does for 2011-12. The adjusted formula grant is used in calculating the floor damping amount for each authority. These calculations do not affect an authority's grant entitlement in 2010-11. The Secretary of State has estimated the amount of adjusted formula grant for each authority as (z) in the table below, as follows: (a) the sum of the following items: the share of the Distributable Amount calculated in accordance with section 7 of the Local Government Finance Report 2010-11 (£ 111,412,374), plus the share of Revenue Support Grant calculated in accordance with section 6 of the Local Government Finance Report 2010-11 (£ 16,178,111), plus (b) An adjustment for Concessionary Travel, being: (i) the 2009/10 Concessionary Travel Net Current Expenditure for each authority, uprated to reflect 2010-11 market prices, as estimated by the Secretary of State.

The 2009/10 Concessionary Travel Net Current Expenditure for the Integrated Transport Authorities has been reallocated to the relevant metropolitan districts. Adjustments have been made to the 2009/10 Concessionary Travel Net Current Expenditure for the Common Council of the City of London and all London boroughs to reflect the new financing arrangements within London (ii) the result of (i) above minus the 2010/11 allocations of the Concessionary Travel Special Grant for each authority, as estimated by the Secretary of State.
