Departmental spending was cut by 9 percent even though, in his 1995 budget, the Minister of Finance had promised to cut it by 19 percent. More empty promises!
La réduction des dépenses des ministères a atteint 9 p. 100, alors que dans le budget de 1995, le ministre des Finances promettait de les réduire de 19 p. 100. Toujours des promesses de Gascon.
