HC Deb 21 July 1986 vol 102 c29W
Mr. Home Robertson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a table showing Government expenditure on direct assistance to certain sectors of economic activity in rural Scotland for 1984–85 and 1985–86 on the same basis as the table published for 1983–84 in the report on economic trends and support to economic activity in rural Scotland.

Mr. Allan Stewart

The table published for 1983–84 was part of a special exercise for that year. No later information on a similar basis is currently available.
