HC Deb 21 February 1969 vol 778 cc181-2W

Mr. Garrett

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what are the comparable rates of public expenditure per head of the population between Northumberland, Durham and Scotland.

Mr. Diamond

Figures of public expenditure in Northumberland and Durham are not available. Figures relating to identifiable public expenditure per head of population in Scotland in 1967–68 were given on 28th January, 1969 in my reply to the hon. Member for Glasgow, Pollok (Mr. Wright).—[Vol. 776, c. 280–2.]
