§ Mr. McKelveyasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the estimated outturn for 1982–83 on the urban programme.
§ Mr. KingTotal planned expenditure under the urban programme for England in 1982–83 is £270 million at outturn prices. Experience of previous years shows that up to 98 per cent. of urban programme money has been spent annually. I expect a similar level of expenditure to be achieved this year.
