Nigel Will Be Good
Article Abstract:
British government spending is estimated to total 120.3 billion pounds in 1983-1984, an increase of 1.1 per cent. Estimated spending for the next three years is far below what analysts believe will be the inflation rate by then. Some types of public spending have been reduced, but others such as agricultural spending, social security and local authority spending have risen. Other budget projections are made.
