Salary costs and council spending

Summary

Bruton asks whether rising salary costs have squeezed councils’ non-salary spending. Barrett says he will answer if Bruton submits a question.

Is it not a fact that last year's salary costs rose by more than the amount by which councils were allowed to increase their expenditure and that this put a squeeze on non-salary expenditure?
