HC Deb 27 January 1989 vol 145 cc764-5W
Mr. Curry

To ask the Attorney-General whether any changes will be made to the Crown Prosecution Service's cash limit and running costs limit for the year 1988–89.

The Attorney-General

Yes. The cash limit on class XI vote 10 (The Crown Prosecution Service: administration) will be reduced by £18,373,000 from £111,873,000 to £93,500,000 and the running costs limit by £16,982,000 from £107,873,000 to £90,891,000. This is mainly due to a shortfall in the recruitment of staff.
