Analysis of Change
It has not proved possible this year to provide an analysis of change.
The analysis of change attempts to breakdown the year-on-year change in grant into four component parts:
- the change due to data;
- the change due to methodology;
- the change due to control totals; and
- the change due to additional resource equalisation.
In order to work out the change due to data, we attempt to create a new version of the 2005/06 adjusted FSS and grants as if we had updated the data to that which would have been used in 2006/07 had we not have changed the formulae. Unfortunately, due to the additional grant added into the 2004/05 settlement, it is not possible to set the shares of assumed national council tax accurately. It is therefore not possible to calculate the element due to data.
