HC Deb 17 April 1972 vol 835 c1W
6. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what estimates have been made of the total financial assistance which would be given to Scotland in 1973–74 and in 1975–76, respectively, within the provisions as set out in the White Paper, "Industrial and Regional Development", Command Paper No. 4942.

Mr. Chataway

I regret that the information is not available. Forecasts of financial assistance, including those given in Command Paper 4942, are prepared for Great Britain as a whole and it is not the practice to forecast on a country or regional basis how much will be spent.
