19. Mr. Dubs

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what proposals he has to make further cuts in public expenditure.

Mr. Brittan

The annual survey of our plans for public expenditure has only just begun. It is at too early a stage for any proposals to have been made.

29. Mr. Norman Atkinson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what further public expenditure cuts he anticipates making in the current quarter.

Mr. Brittan

We do not anticipate making any cuts in the Government's public expenditure plans in the time scale envisaged.
