To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage what is the expected capital spending figure for his Department for 1994–95; and what is the latest budget figure. [30878]

[holding answer 28 June 1995]: The information requested is as follows:

£ million
Department of National Heritage	1994–95	1995–96
Central Government's own expenditure	167	188
Public Corporations' expenditure	155	130
Local authority expenditure	261	—
Total	583	318

There are no figures currently available giving the departmental breakdown of planned local authority capital expenditure in 1995–96. The total capital expenditure 1995–96 will not therefore be comparable with the figure for 1994–95.
