§ Mr. Deakinsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate the European Commission has made about the growth in own resources over the next three years, on the assumption that the value added tax rate is increased to 1.4 per cent.
§ Mr. Ian StewartI refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 30 October at c.946. The Commission's detailed revenue and expenditure forecasts were published in June with their Preliminary Draft Buget for 1985. A copy of this has been placed in the Library of the House.
