HC Deb 26 July 1978 vol 954 c769W
Mr. Trotter

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he received the final report of the Northern Regional strategy team; and why he has not yet published his response, having regard to the economic problems currently faced by the region.

Mr. Guy Barnett

My right hon. Friend received this report on 22nd March 1977. The report deals with a wide range of matters relating to the Northern Region and its many recommendations are still being considered interdepartmentally.
