- Abstract
The article examines the state of local government finance in Great Britain. There are six major uncertainties surrounding the immediate prospects for local government finance including the selective rate-capping exercise in 1985-1986, the proposed abolition of the Greater London Council and the Metropolitan Countries, the elaboration of mechanism of the rate support grant. The local government as a whole emerged as an apparent overspending sector. The 1980 Local Government, Planning and Land Act, was the first major legislation to introduced block grant, capital expenditure controls, requirements to publish information and controls on the direct labor building organizations.
