Details
The latest national statistics on the final outturn estimates of local authority revenue expenditure and financing for 2011 to 2012 were released on 28 November 2013 under arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.
The key points from the latest release are:
- total revenue expenditure by local authorities in England was £94.3 billion in 2012 to 2013, a decrease of 5.0% from £99.3 billion in 2011 to 2012; the majority of the decrease was due to a decrease in education expenditure, from £40.2 billion in 2011 to 2012 to £37.1 billion in 2012 to 2013
- education expenditure for 2012 to 2013 is not comparable to previous years due to a number of schools changing their status to become academies, which are centrally funded rather than funded by local authorities
- 28.3% of revenue expenditure in 2012 to 2013 was funded through council tax, 29.5% through formula grant and 44.8% through specific grants inside aggregate externalfFinance and local services support grant; these percentages were 26.6%, 29.7% and 46.1% respectively in 2011 to 2012
- local authorities net current expenditure for education services was £37.1 billion in 2012 to 2013; social care services were £21.1 billion, mandatory housing benefits were £20.7 billion, and police services were £11.3 billion
- in 2012 to 2013 local authorities added £2.6 billion to their reserves, the same amount as in 2011 to 2012; the 2012 to 2013 figure includes Greater London Authority, who added £0.9 billion to their reserves
