HC Deb 04 March 1985 vol 74 c400W
Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, with reference to his reply on 4 February, Official Report, column 428, publishing a table of European Economic Community grants in the Edinburgh area, whether he will give further information on (a) what infrastructure projects are involved and (b) which industrial projects are involved.

Mr. Younger

The table shows commitments from the European regional development fund (ERDF) for infrastructure and industrial projects in the present Edinburgh travel-to-work area during the period 1975–84. ERDF assistance for industrial projects represents a reimbursement to the United Kingdom Government of regional aids to industry.
