HC Deb 13 February 1973 vol 850 c314W
Mr. Dormand

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to continue grant payable under Operation Eyesore after June 1973.

Mr. Rippon

I am reviewing the working of this scheme and considering whether grants can be continued after June 1973. I cannot yet say whether any extension will be possible.

Mr. James Johnson

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will make a statement on the progress of Operation Eyesore in Kingston upon Hull.

Mr. Rippon

27 schemes in Kingston upon Hull have so far been approved for grant, with an estimated total cost of £81,500. Most of the work is clearing and landscaping of sites owned by the corporation.
