HC Deb 12 February 1986 vol 91 c477W
Mrs. McCurley

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish the Scottish commentary on the public expenditure White Paper: "The Government's Expenditure Plans 1986–87 to 1988–89", Cmnd. 9702.

Mr. Rifkind

My Department is issuing today "Public Expenditure to 1988–89: A Commentary on the Scotland Programme" which gives more information about the public expenditure within my responsibility. I have arranged for a copy to be sent to each right hon. and hon. Member representing a Scottish constituency and I shall be pleased to let any other hon. Member have a copy on request. Copies are also being placed in the Library.
