HC Deb 26 October 1987 vol 121 c23W
Mr. Wray

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what contingency plans Her Majesty's Government have in the event of failure of their appeal to private investors to help the inner cities crisis.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The private sector, and private investors, are already fully committed to the inner cities through a wide range of Government programmes which include their participation. I expect their support to develop and grow. We need to give it every encouragement, not speculate about what might happen if it were not there.
