HC Deb 20 October 1993 vol 230 c252W
33. Mr. Jim Cunningham

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make a statement on his current urban policies.

Mr. Baldry

The Government will continue to support the regeneration of urban areas through their main programmes and special measures. These measures include bringing together English Estates, derelict land grant and city grant into a single Urban Regeneration Agency which will be a major engine of renewal; supporting the urban development corporations which have already attracted some £12 billion in private investment; and encouraging local regeneration through city challenge.
