GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTS FOR OCTOBER 1975
The Hong Kong Government accounts for the month of October 1975
show a deficit of $97 million as compared with a deficit of $163 million
in October 1974.
This has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $603 million for the
first seven months of the financial year, compared with a deficit of $980
million for the same period in the last financial year.
Total revenue for the month at $437 million was $61 million more
than in October 1974, mainly because of increased receipts from rates and
internal revenue.
Total expenditure at 534 million was $5 million less than the same
month in the last financial year,
