HC Deb 08 June 1937 vol 324 cc1587-8
58. Mr. David Adams

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the total amount of loans advanced by the Special Areas Reconstruction Association, Limited, and the amount advanced in the Special Areas of Tyneside and county Durham?

Lieut.-Colonel Colville

I am informed that the Association have so far agreed to make, in all, 74 loans, totaling £429,700; of these, 34 loans involving £154,800 are for the Special Areas of the Tyneside and Durham.

Mr. Dalton

Would it be possible for the right hon. and gallant Gentleman to separate that last figure for Tyneside from the figure for the rest of the county, as I rather gather was the intention of the question?

Lieut.-Colonel Colville

I should require notice of that question.

Forward to
