It's all a bit academic as it depends on whether you class spending as "local" or "national".
For example, there was a thread where Welsh members were complaining that Crossrail was being classed as a "UK" project (as it benefits those from outside London who will use it too) rather than a "London" project. If it was a "London" project then there would presumably need to be some equivalent spending in Wales (and Scotland/ Norn Iron) to balance things up under the Barnett formula.
