76. Sir SAMUEL ROBERTSasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the expenditure and revenue from the beginning of the financial year up to the end of November: and how the figures compare with the Estimates for such period?
§ Mr. BALDWINThe figures of revenue and expenditure from 1st April last to the 2nd December as compared with the Estimate for the whole year will be found in the usual weekly Exchequer statement, which was published in the "London Gazette" on the 5th instant and in the Press. No estimates are made for broken periods; and I fear I cannot undertake at present to forecast the outturn of the year.
