§ Mr. Kilfedderasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the Northern Ireland Community Relations Commission is entitled to claim funds from the EEC for the support of community relations projects; and what procedures should be followed.
§ Mr. van StraubenzeeThe regional policy of the EEC is still in the formative stage. If it were subsequently decided that EEC funds could be made available to support projects run by bodies such as the Northern Ireland Community Relations Commission any claim would have to be made through the normal departmental channels.
