To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how much has been spent on(a) the front line and (b) procurement in current prices; in each year since 1999–2000; and what his plans are for each year until 2005–06. [125589]

Mr. Ingram

This information is published in The Government's Expenditure Plans 2003–04 to 2005–06. Tables two and three contain details of the Ministry of Defence's resource consumption and capital expenditure broken down into categories, which include Front Line and Procurement. These tables detail outturn for 1999–2000 to 2002–03 (estimated) and plans for 2003–04 to 2005–06 at outturn prices. These figures can be re-based to constant prices using the factors available from the HM Treasury website,

A copy of The Government's Expenditure Plans 2003–04 to 2005–06 has been placed in the Library of the House.
