HC Deb 13 March 1986 vol 93 c587W
27. Mr. Hicks

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he has any plans to bring forward measures to increase investment in public infrastructure projects; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. MacGregor

The 1986 public expenditure White Paper (Cmnd. 9702) set out the Government's spending plans for future years. It showed increases over previous plans in capital spending, notably on housing renovation and roads.
