HC Deb 06 December 1967 vol 755 cc320-1W
Mr. G. Campbell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will now tabulate the minor cuts and deferments, accounting for £60 million of the recently announced £100 million reduction in defence expenditure, but so far unspecified.

Mr. Healey

I am not at present prepared to add to the statement I made on 27th November. Details of all the changes will be reflected in the 1968–69 Estimates.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what percentage of moneys expended by his Department in 1966 was spent in Wales.

Mr. Mason

Exclusive of remittances by Welsh members of the forces serving outside Wales, about 3 per cent. of Defence Budget expenditure was spent in Wales during 1965–66, the most recent year for which such information is readily available.
