HC Deb 02 February 1966 vol 723 cc225-6W
73. Mr. Alison

asked the Minister of Transport if she is aware that public expenditure on roads and transport in the Yorkshire and Humberside planning region, as recorded in table 89 of the National Plan, was appreciably smaller than that of any other region in the United Kingdom in the latest available year; and what proposals she has to remedy this imbalance.

Mrs. Castle

That year was 1963–64. This Government's announced plans for improved road communications in the region demonstrate the importance attached to it.
