HC Deb 27 March 1972 vol 834 c7W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what studies he has made of the results achieved by the Scottish Highlands and Islands Development Board; and whether he has considered the establishment of a body in Wales exercising some of those functions.

Mr. Peter Thomas

I am familiar with the work of this board, but I am satisfied that the Government's present policies and organisation are wholly suited to the needs of Wales.
