HC Deb 23 July 1969 vol 787 cc401-2W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will give details of the pilot community development projects in Southwark, Coventry and Liverpool.

Mr. Callaghan

In each of the three areas, the local authority is now engaged in the preliminary stage of establishing the project—namely, choosing a suitable neighbourhood; recruiting a project director and assistants; and setting up, in conjunction with statutory and voluntary organisations, a steering group to be responsible locally for the project. The central project team are, simultaneously, consulting universities about providing research support.
