HC Deb 26 March 1990 vol 170 c15W
Mr. Knapman

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he intends to publish the Northern Ireland public expenditure commentary; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Cope

The "Northern Ireland Commentary on Public Expenditure Plans 1990–91 to 1992–93" was published today and copies are available in the Vote Office. This is the third Northern Ireland commentary and it aims to improve the information available to Parliament, and the public, by amplifying the material in the Northern Ireland chapter of the 1990 public expenditure White Paper.
