asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will now state how much is being saved under the 10 per cent. economy cut by a reduction in expenditure on British Government information services abroad; and which regions are affected by these economies.

I would refer the hon. Gentleman to the reply given by my hon. Friend the Minister of State on 23rd October to the hon. Gentleman the Member for Woolwich, East (Mr. Mayhew). It is still too early to say what reductions will have to be made in overseas Information expenditure for which the Foreign Office is responsible.
