HC Deb 12 November 1980 vol 992 c204W
29. Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will now take steps to create an enterprise zone in Stoke-on-Trent.

Mr. Heseltine

My right hon. and learned Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced on 29 October that the Government had chosen Dudley and Corby as the locations of two enterprise zones in the Midlands. We do not propose to choose any further sites in the Midlands at this stage.
