HC Deb 17 February 1971 vol 811 c455W
65. Mr. Chapman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what proportion of the expenses of the pilot conservation schemes in Bath, Chester, Chichester and York referred to in his Department's Circular No. 1/71 will be borne by the Exchequer; and what will be the cost of this to the Exchequer in money terms.

Mr. Graham Page

My right hon. Friend is preparing to join in appropriate schemes on a basis of equal sharing of costs with the authorities. I cannot yet say what the cost will be.
