HC Deb 20 March 1996 vol 274 c195W
Mr. John Marshall

To ask the Attorney-General, pursuant to his answer to the hon. Member for Gloucester (Mr. French) of 1 February,Official Report, columns 858–59, what is the Crown Prosecution Service's cash limit for 1995–96 after taking account of appropriations in aid. [21952]

The Attorney-General

The Crown Prosecution Service's cash limits which I announced on 1 February did not take account of appropriations in aid. Subject to parliamentary approval of the necessary supplementary estimate, the Crown Prosecution Service's cash limit for class IX, vote 4, after taking account of appropriations in aid, will be increased from £229,673,000 to £231,173,000. This increase will be charged to the reserve and will not therefore add to the planned total of public expenditure.
