HC Deb 26 October 1992 vol 212 cc513-4W
Mr. Fatchett

To ask the President of the Board of Trade when he expects to publish the outcome of his review of the assisted areas map; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Sainsbury

The public consultation paper on the assisted areas map review issued in June stated that the Government's aim was to implement a revised map early in 1993, following the necessary clearance with the European Commission. This remains our intention.
