Budget Resolutions

Debate between Baroness Morgan of Cotes and Matt Hancock

Tuesday 30th October 2018 Commons Chamber

[Matt Hancock]

No. The £84 billion is the cash figure. The £20.5 billion is the real-terms increase by the end of the five years. If we add up all the extra money, we get £84 billion. It is there on page 36 of the Budget, if the hon. Lady wants to look. The biggest single cash increase comes next year, in 2019-20. It is all there in the Red Book.

[Nicky Morgan (Loughborough) (Con)]

I thank the Secretary of State for more good news for the midlands in the form of £70 million for the Defence and National Rehabilitation Centre just outside my constituency to help civilian rehabilitation. Can he share further details of that with us?
