HC Deb 06 February 1996 vol 271 cc139-40W
Sir Mark Lennox-Boyd

To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will reject the application by Norweb to install overhead power lines between Claughton and Wennington; and if he will make a statement. [13563]

Subject to parliamentary approval of the necessary supplementary estimate, the cash limit for class III, vote 4—Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food: departmental research, advisory services and administration, executive agencies and certain other services—will be increased by £3,622,000 from £330,408,000 to £334,030,000. The £3,622,000 arises as a result of a transfer from vote 3 where it is reflected as reduced provision of £1,622,000 and by end-year flexibility of £2,000,000. The gross running costs limit for the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food will decrease by £11,954,000 from £334,694,000 to £322,740,000.
