HC Deb 18 April 1990 vol 170 c882W
Mr. Jim Marshall

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what estimate he is able to make of the total amount of public expenditure per constituency for the four parliamentary constituencies in Belfast for the years 1982–83 to 1988–89 inclusive.

Mr. Cope

It is not possible for any reliable estimate of public expenditure per constituency in Belfast to be obtained without incurring disproportionate costs.
