§ Mr. Kaufmanasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will give the 1982– 83 original estimates for the items in the list headed "Expenditure on Department of Environment Capital Programmes in 1983–84 compared with 1982–83 Provisional Outturn" placed in the Vote Office on 15 November; where in Cmnd. 8494 these original figures are to be found; and whether recently published figures include current expenditure as well as capital expenditure.
§ Mr. Heseltine[pursuant to his reply, 23 November 1982, c. 477]: Planned expenditure in 1983–84, compared with provisional outturn for 1982–83 and the Cmnd. 8494 plans for 1982–83, on DOE programmes with a substantial capital element is as follows: 208W
1983–84 Plans 1982–83 Provisional Outturn 1982–83 Cmnd. 8494 Plans £m £m £m Housing Capital 3,244 2,900 3,108 Regional Water Authorities 677 632 642 Grants to BWB 41 38 *38 Local Environmental Services Capital (inc new Towns Industrial and Commercial) 605 481 490 Coast Protection 19 16 16 Derelict Land Reclamation 75 59 46 Urban Programme 348 280 *256 Urban Development Corporations 67 64 *64 Royal Palaces, Parks, Ancient Monuments Historic Buildings, the Heritage 85 80 *77 Grants to Environmental Bodies etc. 80 76 *71 PSA 604 562 *545 I regret that the figures for PSA in the list placed in the Vote Office on 15 November represented expected net expenditure after allowing for receipts, rather than gross expenditure as stated. The figures for the programmes marked * in the above list include current as well as capital expenditure. The figures for 1982–83 plans were included in tables 2.7, 2.8 and 2.14 of Cmnd. 8494, though these tables also included current expenditure programmes and were net of estimated capital receipts.
