§ Sir W. Elliottasked the Secretary of State for Industry if he is satisfied with information regarding financial aid and incentives to established business concerns in development areas.
§ Mr. CryerDetails of Government incentives for industry in the assisted areas are given in a handbook "Incentives for Industry" available on request from offices of my Department and those of the Scottish and Welsh Departments. Projects of firms already established in the assisted areas may qualify for regional selective assistance under Section 7 of the Industry Act 1972 but those in service industries must have a real choice of location between the assisted areas and elsewhere and provide a minimum of 25 new jobs.
