HC Deb 08 December 1975 vol 902 cc60-1W
Mr. Steen

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what regions in the European Community have as many acres of prime development sites, with access to a major port and airport and a comprehensive motorway system, as Merseyside.

Mr. Gregor Mackenzie

This information is not readily available. Certainly Merseyside, in common with other special development areas in Britain, has much to offer to industrialists seeking favourable locations for new projects.
