Barnett Formula (EDM959)

Barnett Formula

EDM number 959 in 2003-04, proposed by Peter Kilfoyle on 31/03/2004.

That this House recognises that the Barnett Formula was instituted as a temporary measure to offset calls for devolution under the Callaghan government; has, according to Lord Barnett, its author, existed beyond its sell-by date remains unfair and to the detriment of the English regions and to the advantage of Scotland and Wales and ought to be replaced forthwith by a fairer distribution of funds throughout the United Kingdom.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
