HC Deb 10 December 1959 vol 615 c732
28. Mr. Jay

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many grants or loans under Section 3 of the Distribution of Industry Act, 1945, have been made in the present year; what is the total value; and how much has gone to each Development Area.

Mr. Erroll

I understand from the Departments concerned that five grants have been approved. Two of these total £46,000: the amounts of the other three have not yet been fixed. Three of these grants are for services in North Lancashire, one in South Wales and one in Scotland.
