To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what percentage of his departmental budget he intends to spend on advertising in the current year and 1989; and what sums will be spent on(a) television advertising, (b) radio advertising, (c) newspaper advertising and (d) pamphlets.

Mr. Rifkind

Planned expenditure by my Department on information campaigns, including advertising, in 1988–89 will be approximately 0.03 per cent. of total expenditure shown in the class XVI Scotland Supply Estimates 1988–89. Since the form of the campaigns has not yet been settled, it is not possible to give the breakdown requested.
