HC Deb 10 July 1970 vol 803 c108W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the extra assistance to be provided for areas of special social need, especially those in which large numbers of immigrants have settled, will include the London Borough of Newham.

Mr. Sharples

Newham is among the authorities that have been invited to make further proposals. There is no reason to suppose that the authority will not continute to benefit from the programme as it develops.
