§ Mr. Hefferasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps are being taken by his Department to carry out a programme of urban renewal on Merseyside similar to that envisaged for Glasgow; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. FreesonAs part of our work on inner city areas, we have, jointly with the city council, a major study by consultants within the inner area of Liverpool. It will be completed this year. I certainly hope that this work will help forward the programmes of the county and district authorities, as well as help the Government in the development of their policies on urban renewal generally.
