HC Deb 12 March 1975 vol 888 cc141-2W
52. Mr. Hoyle

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how the regional development grants will be affected by the agreement reached on financial aid from the EEC's Regional Development Fund.

Mr. Hattersley

The Regional Development Fund will not affect the arrangements for paying regional development grants in this country. We expect regional development grants to qualify for Fund assistance.
