HC Deb 06 December 1974 vol 882 cc665-6W
Mr. John Evans

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what was the total amount spent in each of the district councils in the North-West of England, under the urban aid programme, in each year since the programme's inception; and what has been allocated for the ensuing year to each district council in the North-West of England.

Mr. Alexander W. Lyon

I regret that information about past expenditure is not readily available in the form requested. My noble Friend the Minister of State will write to my hon. Friend. We hope to announce by the end of the year which schemes proposed by local authorities under the current phases of the programme have been approved.
