HC Deb 23 July 1996 vol 282 c242W
Mr. Barry Field

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the total annual expenditure of his Department in respect of the Isle of Wight, including expenditure on administration. [36918]

Mr. Waldegrave

Information is not held centrally about how much Government expenditure is for the benefit of particular counties. However, a regional breakdown is available in "Public Expenditure Statistical Analyses", Cm3201. Information could be collected from other Government Departments only at disproportionate cost.
