§ Mr. BoatengTo ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department what is his forecast of fee income for civil business for the current financial year; and how far this forecast differs from the amount needed to meet his spending plans.
Mr. John M. TaylorWe presently forecast that, with imminent fee increases, we should this year receive £234 million income from civil business, £52 million less than the Department's published appropriations in aid figure.
