Employment (Public Sector)

HC Deb 01 February 1977 vol 925 c131W

Mr. Forman

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will publish in the Official Report, on the same date as the publication of the Public Expenditure White Paper, a table showing the implications for public sector manpower levels of the changes in public expenditure announced in the White Paper.

Mr. Joel Barnett,

pursuant to his reply [Official Report, 31st January 1977; Vol. 925, c. 50], gave the following answer:

No. The changes in public expenditure announced in the White Paper (Cmnd. 6721—I) are very small.
