HC Deb 26 February 1987 vol 111 c370W
30. Mr. Caborn

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will give his latest estimate of the total revenue that will be raised from special asset sales by the end of 1987.

Mr. Norman Lamont

Since 1979, privatisation proceeds accruing directly to the Exchequer have been over £11 billion. No forecasts are made for calendar years. The central estimate for 1987–88 is £5 billion.
