HC Deb 27 January 1983 vol 35 c514W
22. Sir David Price

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what progress he has made towards achieving his public expenditure targets for 1982–83.

Mr. Brittan

I expect spending to be contained within the planned total of £114.7 billion published in the autumn statement. The public expenditure White Paper, which will be published very shortly, will include a forecast of outturn for 1982–83.
