HC Deb 30 January 1973 vol 849 cc375-6W
Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he has now given further consideration to extending Operation Eyesore beyond the present terminal date of June 1973; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Thomas

Under the Special Environmental Assistance Scheme approval has been given to more than 1,400 projects in Wales. I have received representations for its extension; these will be carefully considered but I cannot add to what was said in my reply of 27th November last to my hon. Friend the Member for Cardiff, North (Mr. Michael Roberts).—[Vol. 847, c. 15.]
