HC Deb 16 February 1971 vol 811 c410W
88. Mr. Gregor Mackenzie

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will amend his paper on Public Expenditure 1969–70 to 1974–75, Command Paper No. 4578, to allow for the increase in Government assistance for West Central Scotland announced on 3rd February.

Mr. Anthony Grant

No. The additional expenditure will depend largely on the response of industry, and reliable estimates cannot be made for individual special development areas.
