HC Deb 23 July 1976 vol 915 cc621-2W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is now able to give a detailed explanation of the reasons why on many occasions the Treasury estimates and accounts have been proved wrong and corrections have had to be made at approximately six-monthly intervals in all aspects of policies.

Mr. Joel Barnett

I am not clear to what my hon. Friend is referring. If he has anything specific in mind perhaps he would write to me about it.
