For the purpose of assisting local authorities in Scotland to meet reasonable housing needs in their areas, the Secretary of State shall, for the year 1979-80 and each subsequent year, make grants to local authorities in accordance with the provisions of this Act; and any grants made in pursuance of this subsection shall be known as " housing support grants ".
For the purpose of fixing the aggregate amount of the housing support grants for any year, the Secretary of State shall, in respect of all local authorities in Scotland, estimate the following amounts— and the amount remaining after deducting the amount mentioned in paragraph (b) above from the amount mentioned in paragraph (a) above shall, subject to subsection (4) below and section 3 of this Act, be the aggregate amount of the housing support grants for that year.
the aggregate amount of eligible expenditure which it is reasonable for local authorities to incur for that year; and
the aggregate amount of relevant income which local authorities could reasonably be expected to receive for that year,
Before estimating the amounts mentioned in paragraphs (a) and (b) of subsection (2) above for any year, the Secretary of State shall consult with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned and shall take into consideration—
the latest information available to him as to the level of eligible expenditure and relevant income ;
the level of interest rates, remuneration, costs and prices which, in his opinion, would affect the amount of eligible expenditure for that year; and
the latest information available to him as to changes in the general level of earnings which would affect the amount of relevant income which could reasonably be expected for that year.
In fixing the aggregate amount of the housing support grants for the year 1980-81 or any subsequent year, the Secretary of State may take into account the extent, if any, to which the aggregate amount of eligible expenditure which it was reasonable for local authorities to incur for any previous year differs or is likely to differ from the aggregate amount for that previous year which he estimated or re-estimated tinder this section or section 3 of this Act respectively.
The aggregate amount of the housing support grants, fixed in accordance with subsection (2) above for any year, shall be set out in an order made by the Secretary of State with the consent of the Treasury (in this Act referred to as a " housing support grant order "); and a housing support grant order may be made in respect of any year before the beginning of that year.
No housing support grant order shall be made until that order has been laid in draft before the Commons House of Parliament, together with a report of the considerations leading to the provisions of the order, and has been approved by a resolution of that House.
In this Act—
" eligible expenditure ", in relation to any year, means the expenditure which a local authority are required to debit to their housing revenue account for that year in pursuance of Schedule 4 to the Act of 1972;
" relevant income", in relation to any year, means the income and any rate fund contribution which a local authority are required to credit to their housing revenue account for that year in pursuance of the said Schedule 4.
Subject to the provisions of this section, the proportion of the aggregate amount of the housing support grants payable for any year to a local authority shall be determined by the Secretary of State, after consulting with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned, by such method as may be prescribed ; and a prescribed portion of the said aggregate amount may be apportioned to a particular local authority.
The report accompanying a housing support grant order in accordance with section 1(6) of this Act shall contain a table showing the estimated amount of grant payable to each local authority for the year in question.
In prescribing the method of determining the proportion mentioned in subsection (1) above payable to a local authority for the year 1980-81 or any subsequent year, the Secretary of State may take into account any substantial difference in the actual amount of any element of their eligible expenditure as compared with any estimate of the amount of that element made by him in determining the said proportion payable to them for a previous year.
In prescribing the method of determining the proportion mentioned in subsection (1) above payable for any year to a local authority the Secretary of State shall have regard to any special needs affecting eligible expenditure.
Subject to subsection (6) below, the Secretary of State may, for any year (in this subsection and in subsection (6) below referred to as " the current year "), prescribe such method of determining the said proportion as to secure that no reduction in the amount of housing support grant payable to any local authority for the current year as compared with the amount of housing support grant so payable for the immediately preceding year is so great that there is an unreasonable increase for the current year over that preceding year in the amount of the authority's eligible expenditure which is required to be met by way of rent or rate fund contributions.
Subsection (5) above shall have effect—
where the current year is 1979-80 as if for the words " amount of housing support grant so payable for the immediately preceding year " there were substituted the words " aggregate amount of subsidies as estimated by the Secretary of State so payable for the year 1978-79 under the enactments described in Part I of Schedule 1 to and paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 7 (8) of this Act ";
where the current year is 1979-80 or 1980-81 as if for the word " may" there were substituted the word " shall ".
In this section " prescribed " means prescribed by a housing support grant order.
If it appears to the Secretary of State after consulting with such associations of local authorities as appear to him to be concerned that, after the time when the amount mentioned in section 1(2)(a) of this Act was estimated for any year, the eligible expenditure of local authorities for that year has been or is likely to be substantially increased or decreased by reason of changes which have taken place or are likely to take place in the level of the matters specified in section 1(3)(b) of this Act, and that inadequate account was taken of those changes when the amount mentioned as aforesaid was estimated, he may at any time after such consultation re-estimate for that year the said amount; and by an order made in the like manner and subject to the like provisions as a housing support grant order, may increase or, as the case may be, decrease the amount fixed by the relevant housing support grant order as the aggregate amount of the housing support grants for that year.
An order made under this section with respect to any year may, as respects that year, vary any matter prescribed by the relevant housing support grant order.
