HC Deb 19 November 1969 vol 791 c320W
62. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will make a statement on the official publication, "A Scottish Budget"; and what representations he has received challenging the accuracy or relevance of the statistics used.

Mr. Diamond

The report indicates that there was a substantial imbalance between the central Government expenditure and revenue which might be attributed to Scotland in 1967–68. I have seen no representations which lead me to change or modify that conclusion.
