Standard Spending Assessment For Cheltenham

EDM number 186 in 1992-93, proposed by Nigel Jones on 04/06/1992.

That this House notes that the standard spending assessment for Cheltenham Borough Council in 1992-93 has not taken into account population increases due to local authority boundary changes which brought Prestbury, Leckhampton, Up Hatherley, Reddings and Swindon Village into the Borough; further notes that had account been taken of these changes then Cheltenham Borough Council would not have been eligible for capping; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to reverse its decision and to include the correct population figures in calculating future standard spending assessments.

This motion has been signed by a total of 12 MPs.
