KUALA LUMPUR: The size of the Government’s development expenditure next year will be smaller than this year’s to reduce the budget deficit. 

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Mustapa Mohamed said yesterday the reduction would have minimal effect on economic activities because of the Government’s pump-priming exercise last year.
