HC Deb 22 January 1993 vol 217 c440W
Mr. Leighton

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what percentage of the money allocated for employment action for 1991–92 was spent; and what is the estimate for 1992–93.

Mr. McLoughlin

In 1991–92 32 per cent. of the money allocated for employment action was spent. Current Departmental forecasts estimate that 85 per cent. of the 1992–93 provision will be spent and it is planned to reduce the cash limit accordingly in the spring supplementary estimate due to be published at the end of January 1993.
