Budget Defence spending likely below full year's allocation

Government faces a probable defence outlay under the 190 million pound budget for the year with Treasury figures showing a maximum near 180.0 million. In the 11 months to May defence expenditure reached 152.69 million, with a possible additional 25.0 million this month. Revenue rose, tax intake to end May reached 3.539877 million pounds on the year's expected 675.05 million income tax, while customs and sales taxes also beat expectations. Total revenue for 11 months stood at 1,149.691 million versus a budgeted 1,391.009 million. Expenditure over 11 months ran 59.648 million below revenue, a surplus credited to the Lean Consolidations and Investment Reserve Fund.
