HC Deb 10 May 1971 vol 817 c30W
91. Mr. Golding

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the total expenditure to date on grants for the reclamation of derelict land; and what is now the estimated expenditure in the coming year.

Mr. Graham Page

Derelict land grants to local authorities in England since 1960 amount to £2,895,796. Grants during 1971–72 should exceed the £1,384,025 paid during 1970–71.
