Local Government Finance

I genuinely seek clarification. The Minister announced, with a bit of a flourish, that he proposed to ““end the additional damping and fully to implement the social services formulae””. He also said that ““this unwinds quite gradually over this and the next spending review periods.”” That, of course, equals six years, so the damping will be withdrawn not immediately but in a gradual fashion. The damping mechanism affects Cornish authorities. Cornwall county council has a formula grant of £149 million, but how much will be withdrawn from that council as a result of the damping mechanism? Last year, £10 million was withdrawn.
