HC Deb 24 April 1972 vol 835 c222W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he proposes to announce a policy for rural Wales within the near future.

Mr. Peter Thomas

I refer the hon. Member to my reply to the right hon. Member for Anglesey (Mr. Cledwyn Hughes) on 13th March. Rural Wales will further draw substantial benefit from the measures announced since then in the Budget and in the White Paper "Industrial and Regional Development" (Cmnd. 4942).—[Vol. 833, c. 12.]
