HC Deb 21 October 1988 vol 138 c1015W
Mr. Curry

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will give details of any revised cash limits for his Department's votes.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

Subject to parliamentary approval to the necessary Supplementary Estimates, cash limits for the following votes will be revised as follows:

£'000s
Class and vote Current cash limit Increase/ decrease Revised cash limit
XII. 1 482,201 -744 481,457
XII. 3 1,843,880 +744 1,844,624

The increase on class XII, vote 3 represents expenditure originally included for provision within class XII, vote 1 in respect of a major capital project at Goldsmiths' college. The increase on class XII, vote 3 reflects the inclusion of this expenditure following the college's incorporation as part of the university of London.

These changes will not affect the overall planned total of expenditure.
