HC Deb 30 November 1976 vol 921 c88W
Q41. Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Prime Minister if the statements about inner city areas made by the Secretary of State for the Environment on the "Weekend World" television programme on 14th November represent Government policy.

Mr. Foot

I have been asked to reply.

My right hon. Friend gave in this interview a very clear exposition of the problems of the inner city and of some of the options for public policy which need to be considered. It is right that such major questions of social policy should be brought before the public in this way.
