HC Deb 19 January 1972 vol 829 c174W
Mr. Joel Barnett

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment, in the recent public expenditure proposals set out in Command Paper No. 4829, what is the estimated expenditure of his Department in Lancashire, including the county boroughs, for each of the years to 1975–76; how this compares with other regions; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Walker

The projections are made on a national basis: in general, no ready and reasonably accurate break-down between particular geographical areas is feasible.
