asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if, in view of the Government's policy to give special assistance to areas in Wales where unemployment is above the average for the whole of the United Kingdom, he will increase the number and size of major road construction and improvement schemes in those areas in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Watkinson

Road works I am at present setting in hand in Wales include improvement schemes to the value of about £500,000 in areas with unemployment above the average.
