Finance Minister Vic Schroeder released the Pawley governments first budget showing a 334.5 million deficit up 32.7 percent with 700 million in planned capital spending up 40 percent and total spending near 2.8 billion while revenues reach 2.5 billion. The plan adds 450 civil servants and borrows 150 million from the Canada Pension Plan plus 750 million in markets.
