80. Mr. Chetwynd

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the Government's present policy in regard to the capital investment programme, he will give an assurance that priority will continue to be given to industrial projects in the Development Areas.

Mr. Bottomley

My hon. Friend can rest assured that, within the limits imposed by the investment programme restrictions on new industrial building, we shall continue to give sympathetic consideration to projects in the Development Areas.
