§ Mr. MorganTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will give details of the cost of Government administration for each of the past 10 years, in cash and real terms, inclusive of the latest outturn estimate for 1994–95.
§ Sir George YoungRunning costs in cash and real terms, at 1993–94 prices, of civilian departments for 1989–90 to 1994–95 are set out in the table.
9WThe split between administrative costs and programme spending modifies over time; so information for the years prior to 1989–90 could be obtained only on a basis consistent with these figures only at disproportionate cost.
