§ 55. Mr. Onslowasked the First Secretary of State and Secretary of State for Economic Affairs what allowance for the purchase of military equipment was included in the import estimate in the 1970 balance of payments figures projected in the National Plan.
§ Mr. William RodgersAn allowance for imports of military equipment, along with estimates for other components, was contained in the initial calculation of total imports in 1970, but the total was adjusted in the light of other factors such as the results of the industrial inquiry. Because of these adjustments it would be misleading to attempt to break down the revised total into each component.
