To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how much the change in the expenditure plans for his Department for 1989–90 from the 1988–89 estimated outturn will be(a) in percentage terms and (b) after adjustment for the gross domestic product deflator.

Mr. Cope

The 1988–89 estimated outturn for my Department is 2.8 per cent. lower than the 1987–88 outturn. After adjustment for the gross domestic product deflator, the 1988–89 estimated outturn is £289 million (8.5 per cent.) lower than the 1987–88 outturn.
