Regional Spending: A Comment on MacKay
MACKAY, 2001, recently examined the regional pattern of taxation and spending in the UK, concluding that, for four regions (London, the South East, Scotland and Northern Ireland), public expenditure was well above the level expected for their degree of prosperity. MACKAY, 2001, had a very approximate measure of the regional pattern of 'non-identifiable' government expenditure. A major component of the latter is defence spending and a more precise allocation of this suggests that London and the South East get very preferential treatment. Moreover, so does the South West which should be added to the list of well favoured regions. This raises important issues of spatial balance and efficiency.
