HC Deb 11 February 1969 vol 777 c302W
Mr. Robert Cooke

asked the Minister of Transport what is the total allocation of public funds to the South Wales ports made or promised since 1945.

Mr. Marsh

The allocation of funds to the South Wales ports of Newport, Cardiff, Penarth, Barry, Port Talbot and Swansea is a matter for the British Transport Docks Board. Assistance to these ports by way of port modernisation grants under Section 12 of the Harbours Act, 1964, has amounted to about £¾ million to date.
