HC Deb 17 November 1972 vol 846 c237W
Mr. Bray

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what are the totals of moneys or other benefits paid to firms in Skelmersdale new town by his Department or its predecessors by way of regional employment premiums, grants or material aid of any kind towards the establishment and operation of plants in the new town for each of the seven years to 30th June, 1972, or the latest accounting date.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

Separate records of these payments are not kept. As my hon. Friend will appreciate, the cost of obtaining the information would be considerable.
