HC Deb 15 December 1981 vol 15 c67W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what was the cost to public funds of the Equal Opportunities Commission in the last financial year; and what will be the expected final cost for the current financial year.

Mr. Whitelaw

The commission's net expenditure in 1980–81 was £2.54 million. The provision made in the Supply Estimates for the present financial year is £2.911 million. I have no reason to expect any overspending or significant underspending.
