HC Deb 21 February 1979 vol 963 c215W
Mr. Kenneth Clarke

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what guidance or advice he is giving to local authorities about the basis upon which subsidies shall be offered to Inmos in order to compete for its factory site.

Mr. Guy Barnett

My right hon. Friend has not issued general guidance or advice to local authoritiees about this project. Authorities have available to them various statutory powers to provide assistance to industrial development in their areas which might be appropriate to this scheme.
