HC Deb 24 October 1972 vol 843 c260W
Mr. Laurance Reed

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many schemes approved under Operation Eyesore to date involve the cleaning of unsightly or neglected land of the kind that does not qualify for derelict land clearance grants.

Mr. Peter Walker

The great majority of the local environment improvements being carried out under Operation Eyesore would not have been considered for inclusion in the derelict land clearance programme.
