HC Deb 28 March 1985 vol 76 c345W
Mr. Corrie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what change will be made to the 1984–85 cash limit for Class XV, Vote II, Administration of Justice, Scotland.

Mr. Younger

The outturn for this Vote for 1983–84 showed expenditure of £50,000 in excess of that year's cash limit. The overspend arose as a result of a mis-estimation of expenditure required for services provided under the property repayment services scheme. In accordance with normal practice, the cash limit for this Vote for this financial year is reduced by the amount of the previous year's overspend. The cash limit will therefore be reduced by £50,000 from £7,662,000 to £7,612,000.
