House of Commons

Press conference held by Gilles Loiselle, Treasury Board President, and Mel Cappe, Deputy Secretary of the Programs Branch at Treasury Board on the 1991-1992 estimates for federal spending just tabled in the House of Commons. Proceeding directly to questions from the media, Loiselle responds to concerns relating to cuts in both provincial transfers and public service salaries and increases in the military and travelling expenses for Members of Parliament. In follow-up conferences, Douglas Young, Liberal critic conveys the problems he experiences in assessing the estimates; and New Democratic critics, Stan Hovdebo and Brian Gardiner, criticize the confusion of the estimates and the lack of funding to protect the environment. No question period follows. <48mn>.
