The government does not accept the view of some conference participants that a dramatic, absolute cut in 1994-95 spending compared to the previous year is an appropriate policy. The government shares the view of other conference members: that overly drastic action now could threaten the economic progress needed to sustain fiscal improvement in the medium term.

Le gouvernement n'est pas d'accord avec certains des participants aux conférences selon lesquels une réduction draconienne des dépenses serait appropriée en 1994-95 par rapport à l'exercice précédent.
